Bedroom Producers Blog has posted a video showing a new acoustic drum synthesizer by u-he.

U-He is working on a physical modeling acoustic drum synthesizer, which they showcased here at Superbooth16 in Berlin.

The thing already sounds amazingly realistic. During the concert, I was sure that they were using some sort of sample based drum instrument. The obvious approach of the physical modeling approach, though, is making it possible to *play* the synth like a real drum kit.
