Simmons Drums Advanced vs Hypertron

Simmons Drums Advanced is designed to extend the capabilities of the SD1200, SD1250, and SD2000 electronic drum kits. Use this app to record real-world sounds with your iPhone or iPad — anytime, anywhere. Later, edit your unique samples and add them to your kit. The result is a nearly a limitless personal library of samples and soundscapes for your Simmons Module. You can now remotely edit and save your drum kits and sounds with your iOS device using a user-friendly interface. There are also some great tools for improving your playing such as the “Play Along"" function that allows you to choose songs from your iOS's music library and manipulate the playback speed so you can slow down a song to learn the groove. SD2000 Users will need an Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter and USB cable to connect the kit drum module to their iOS device.
