NotesThe SDS 800 series of electronic drums has been designed to form an expandable electronic percussion system, capable of growing with the user into a full scale electronic drum kit. Alternatively, any of the SDS 800 series instruments can be used to expand an acoustic drum kit, bringing the power and flexibility of the Simmons sound to the conventional drum set player. The SDS 200, 400 and 800 series systems all offer flexible manipulation of sound, precise dynamic control, a superb drum pad feel and headphone outputs for private rehearsal. They are not complicated instruments.
