This review is from: Edirol SD-20 USB Bus-Powered MIDI Sound Module (Electronics)

I have been using an SD-20 for several years. It is an outstanding sound module for the price. There are a great number of good, quality sounds. With good sequencing skills, you can create very high-quality music with this unit. The only drawback is the polyphony. Sustaining cymbal sounds (ride cymbals) tend to eat up the available notes pretty quickly. So if you need to do heavy orchestrations with alot of cymbal sounds, you may want a dedicated drum module.
