Simmons SD1200
Description
The Simmons SD1200 is a full-sized electronic kit with authentic sound and feel for drummers in the pursuit of mastering their craft. A custom sound library is matched with state-of-the-art mesh pads and cymbals for realistic feel and sound.
The responsive 12″ dual-zone snare drum includes its own stand to get the angle just right, and 8″ to 10″ toms are also dual-zone to trigger alternate voices.
Each drum pad includes dual-layer, tension-adjustable mesh for customizable, lifelike feel. A mesh kick drum is also included, and it's simple to mount your favourite beater pedal.
Crash and Ride cymbals are 2- and 3-zone (bell/bow/edge) with a choke function for dynamic effects. A variable pedal controls the dual zone hi-hat to get smooth semi-open sounds, trashy edge accents, splash and more. It's all anchored to a new, solid hex rack to prevent drums from slipping on the rack while playing.
The SD1200 sound module features a large colour LCD screen for a detailed look at kits and editing. Dedicated faders, knobs, and buttons simplify kit customization from changing the mix to wild, filtered sound design. The module includes wireless Bluetooth MIDI and a USB input for importing your own WAV files. The Simmons Advanced App for iOS can be used to customize kits, record new samples, and practice with recorded tracks.
