I am reading back as I only rechecked in again some days ago -- Yes Drums are great --I was using R8 studio drum and that naturally has a great quality in Bas drum and snare and side stick ( generally also ) however I was pleased with X1 and I still am after 9 months. Patterns are basic but very good I mean they are not full of Crap clutter -- I however reduce chord and orch parts and sometimes do a liitle adj to drums
