It may have been a stock digital drum set "brain" (e.g., d-drum, roland, etc.), but it's more likely that the pads were triggering hi-rez samples stored in a computer or sampler.
Digital Drum Kits
At A'gon member Ulf's recommendation, I got hold of the tremendous live DVD "Lindsey Buckingham at Bass Hall". His drummer gets this amazing kick drum sound out of a digital set. It looks really strange, but sounds amazing. Anyone know which drummers use these on recordings and do they generally sound so impressive. Any comment is appreciated.
