Plus, the sound completely drops after a few minutes. This would never work in a live situation. A little less robotic sounding, but the latency and slight lack of sensitivity killed it. Have not played with bleed settings, etc., but I was expecting the stock sounds to be huge improvement over the TD-8, which they are not.

It just doesn't sound much different and there's an ever so slight noticeable lag (latency), which would make this a real PITA in a live situation.
