The unique/tough thing about hand-claps is that it is their slight rhythmic imperfection that makes them sound good. That's what sets 10 pairs of clapping hands apart from 3 pairs -- there's more of them that are all just a little bit off (and randomly at that). I'm guessing that this would be hard to reproduce (?).
Though I would also be interested to see the introduction of such a very, very tiny "mistiming" feature that would make things happening on the same beat very, very slightly out of step. I suspect that would make even a single kit sound less like a drum machine, and would probably be very far out if you had, say, 20 floor toms going at it together :) Cheers, Carl -- Carl Edlund Anderson mailto:cea@carlaz.com http://www.carlaz.com/
