The ddrum method really is elegant and economical, not in the cymbal 
and not in the module, really, but in the sample(s). I wouldn't want 
an extra tiddlywink stuck into the cymbal in harm's way. But, as 
Roland has proved with the TD-20, it can be done in the module even 
if the commitment is to COSM or other such modeling.
