Thing about them wasn't that they were bad... far from it. Thing was, there was nowhere NEAR enough of them! That's the danger of making something that sounds so good, it makes all the rest of the styles suck in comparison. You either need to make ALL the styles have audio drums, or you just make the rest look bad.

I still think a boatload of really good KITS solves the issue, and allows you to improve all your legacy styles too. And it would cost Yamaha and its customers FAR less to implement. And heck, if there's anyone out there that PREFERS the insipid drumkits they currently come with, they can still use the old kits! Just give Yamaha users a CHOICE!
