"The controls are - Clap, pitch and length (knob for each). This is the digital side - the sample is produced by a ceramic clip as found in other Simmons gear (SDS7, SDS9 and so on). Not the crazy ear splitting-ly crisp reproduction of todays standers. But a more smooth, full ranger sound from the dawn of "samples". On the analog side you have - Noise, pitch and length (knob for each). Soloed the Noise makes a nice snare sound. That brings us to the balance knob and Volume (also work as the on/off). You can 100% clap and 100% noise with a hard pan of the balance knob.The Auto, push button and Auto speed knob control a metronome that fires the unit at intervals. On the back it has inputs and outs for Foot pedal, Synth or it can be trigger by a 80's drum pad or even a sequencer (Simmons MTM works too. any gate will do). You can fire it with a push button on the top, the "trigger" button. Nice action on this button for live use (not hard to push or sticky). The Humaniser varies the pitch just a tiny bit every time you trigger the unit so you do not get "machine gun" effect. Unless you dig that effect, then turn it off to sound like a robot. Sounds amazing!"
