I must admit I thought the demo vid sounded like Sampled Drums being played from a MIDI Kit

Actually, I’ve just remixed a track using SSD4:

"Ghost In The Mirror" - The Stragglers SSD4 mix

• just to give SSD4 an initial test drive as it were - they definitely sound better than anything I’ve used previously and I think compare very favourably (to my ears) to some live drums that featured on some recent tracks I recorded professionally late last year. JS3 & SSD4 will certainly be my combo of choice from now on

… Personally, I thought the JS3 kits were OK. They sound like drums to me…

You have distilled the problem down to it’s essence. Drums sound like … drums.

Some of my regular critics seem to believe otherwise! Or, at least drums are supposed to sound only a certain way that completely eludes me. Snares in particular - apparently they need to sound like something that is NOT currently in my already vast collection of sampled snares.

I think Ian could raise John Henry Bonham from his grave, get him to collab on a song and everyone would still say his snare sounds like KLONK.
