Re: Thank you, thank you, ..., thank you!

Drumsonly,

Man, I am not surprised as this kit is really fantastique!!  I
honestly haven't felt this amped about playing since I was thrashing
in bar bands back in the 70's - I don't have enough superlatives in my
humble command of the language to express how I feel about this
wonderful machine and its capabilities.  As I said (most
inarticulately, but honestly) in my original post: "YEE HAH!!!".

I would be very interested to know what kind of powered speakers you
were using, though, if possible.  When I started pondering the
purchase of an e-kit it was purely for in-home use, but now that I
have it ... well, anything can happen! ;-)

I forgot to mention you by name in my thank yous, but you have been
another of my virtual mentors on my way to owning this magical (not a)
toy!
