I liked *all* this author's plug-ins! I found this one this year and like it, I don't care if the sounds are limited. It's easy to cause it very loud, watch out for your hearing. Also use SDX, Tromine-C and Tromine-GT in my music tracks, automate the hey out of the former. This is safe to use with 32-bit Wine, tried on Fedora, Manjaro and Solus so far.

Thank you Marvin ! I use ONLY this for Simmons 80s drums! Excellent and light on CPU.

The user interface and controls are quite fiddly to use and navigate, but the sound is great - A bit of tweaking and you can get a really good emulation of the Classic SDS-5 drums.

This is an absolute beast for getting that lush 80's feel. Gated reverb on this just makes demonic killer drums that is like a blunt, brutal decapitation!!!

The familiar Simmons drums are heard on every 80s music songs and TV shows (including Miami Vice & EastEnders).

Super émulation, dommage qu'on ne doivent mettre que des samples 16 bits pour les cymbales et le hihat, sinon le vst crash !!
