It's all about the sound

I'm building a patch which is sounding very industrial. There's big low thumps for the kick drum and some good sharp hits for the snare. It's great that you can just keep layering sounds and adjusting levels till you get the tone you want.

The Roland TD-6 has 11 availble triggers, but I've worked out that if I can access both head and rim shots I could have up to 20 different sounds available. With a wide variation in velocity sensitivity that should add up to a good choice of audio material.
