Comments About the Sounds:
12 bit 32K sampled drums. Good for it's day. I really don't use the drum sounds all that much, just an aux sound or two. I normally set it up and drive my drum module (I like the real time quick drum patch programming for practicing).

(Thanks to Bruce N. Baker for this info.)
