Best drum pad on earth so far. : )

What is most important to me is the acoustic samples. if I could rank the acoustic samples in each module The Korg MPS-10 is 1st. than the Alesis multipad, than Nux DP-2000 perhaps they are tied for 2nd, than the ddrum Neo. Sadly Roland and Yamaha acoustic drums samples still sound like samples from the 80s, first 4 modules seem to be trying to put EZ drummer/Superior Drummer/StevenSlate level samples in these machines. The top small pads on the Korg MPS-10 are also more sensitive than the top pads on the Alesis or the ddrum Neo, making them almost just as useful as the squares. You can do doubles on them just as EZ with the Korg. The only down side is when selecting samples you have to press a button to apply the sample before you even hear it while with other modules you can hear every sample just by cycling threw them. But since the samples sound a step above other modules thats a good trade off. while many other acoustic drum samples sound artificial when playing fast single strokes on a single acoustic drum sample the Korg sounds more natural like a real drum. maybe its got more velocity layers, and round robin layers at the same velocity. That is how you make better acoustic drum samples. More computer power. I'm not sure this module has more computer power but its acoustic drum samples sound the best so far. : ) It would be EZ to make electric drums sound just as good as acoustic drum now, a youtube video called - The Greatest Secret Of 128 Velocity Layers In Sampling ? (Free Kontakt Instrument) - tells everyone how to make incredible sampled instruments out of one recorded sound with the click of a button. I can't wait till the people making the hardware take the sampling to the next level with this Kontakt software. Just throw more computing power at the gear and you can make it as good as acoustic instruments. Of course nothing replaces true acoustic drums for me. I play the beats of songs on a drum kit and use these electric pads for drum solo sections. utilizing the advantages of both. Contrasting one great sound with another is what creates interest.
Good product.

If you used Roland before, this unit is way different, you have to figure out how to use it. However, it has a lot of features. Excellent product.
