Simmons SD1250 Review

*Update: the hi-hat has been greatly improved with a new firmware update available on the Simmons website: https://youtu.be/ZycnVxq4DQM

Today we're taking a deep dive on the Simmons SD1250. It's the successor to the Simmons SD1200 and Expanded edition of that kit. This new drum set takes a few steps forward and a few steps back from its predecessor:

Pros: It's the largest drum set of it's price range. The new update fixes the ride cymbal, snare, and kick drum problems the old version had. This module features a color screen and faders. The drum rack is very wide. A snare stand, sticks, drum key, and a kick drum patch are included in the box.

Cons: The hi-hat misses hits when you play fast on successive bow and edge hits. The drum rack is a bit wobbly. The snare, while drastically improved, does miss the occasional rim shot if you play fast. And there's no rim/head trigger adjustment to fix that problem.

Verdict: Don't buy this until they fix the hi-hat. If they rush a firmware patch, then this will be a large, cheap kit that's good for drum plugins. I wouldn't just use the built in sounds.
