   Thanks for offering to gather up requests, Ed!

   I've posted a wish on the Pintech board for a newly shaped Zenbal
with a more pronounced bell for ride use - the ZBR2? :)

   I also wish the next generation of modules would all include the
ability to "play into the drum head" like the upcoming (but crazy
expensive) TD-20.  Being able to nuance the bass drum like this would
really sound great, and I can imagine using that capability more
generally on the snare and toms.
