Yeah I agree tweak & they are not trying to reproduce a fricken church organ, it's just basic kicks, snare's, hi hats etc. & even so called 'purist's' whoever the fuck they are could not tell the difference between this thing, the real thing or the sampled thing in the mix. Any basic synth like Live's operator or Mashines synth drums to name a few can easily replicate the sounds of the 808/909. Complete waste of time & totally relying on there legacy to sell this recycled & out dated crap...rant over
