Has anyone played on one of these yet. I really like the fact that they can be used as 1 or 2 spocks rather then the HH's where you have to choose one or the other. Also the tonal sounds sound kinda cool. If anyone has used one please let me know what you think.

Thanks

I saw the new designs on the xymox website. I have one of the older pads with just the dual spocks. It is a very nice pad to play on. Has good stick response and the rims are a great feature too. Another plus is that the xymox pads already have laminates on them, unlike the Vic pads that you have to go and spend another $20 to get them.

I bought 2 of these yesterday ( Why not? It was buy 1 get 1 free)
Though it is a gift from my mother for my birthday, so I can't use them until May 17th.
Can I look forward to these? I had no idea they had rims, that's neat.
I bought the waverunner and the Tim Jackson.

you can replace the rims too. but if you practice enough you shouldn't have too. =] I'm thinking about taking advantage of this sale. I would love an ID pad and some sticks or two pads or whatever. there's a lot of options. love the graphics on the tenor pads.

Uh-oh. I noticed something.
The Tim Jackson and Waverunner models do not say (W-LAM) under the title. Does this mean the laminates did not come with them?

And, if they didn't, are they worth buying? What exactly do laminates do?

dont worry. The pad material is laminated already. You will be fine.

Definitely worth buying!

Mine came in today.
But I can't see them until my birthday... but I will be gone on my birthday. For 8 days afterwards. So now I can't even play on them until 38 days from now.

I just came back from WGI finals and played on them in the Xymox booth. compared to the quadropad I have now, I would defiantly recommend getting one. The only other tenor pad there that compares was the new Dynasty tenor pad. The only reason it does though is because it folds in half so it's only half a pain to take with you. Don't get me wrong, it's still a tenor pad but it's actually applicable to take w/ you. For playing though, I would take the Xymox over the dynasty because there is rims on the Xymox and it seemed that the hinge made the dynasty rattle when played, I'm hoping that it was just a bad display though.
