Without a doubt the most fun I have ever had with a drum machine. The sounds are pretty much shite (imagine a mouse with a qtip tapping on the inside of a paper bag), unless run through a distortion pedal, in which case they get alot more agressive and lively. No, the sounds are not the issue here, its the sequencer-it rocks! No multipage menus and staring at displays all day long, just punch in your beats and go! In one mode , you program your beatsand in another, each pad triggers a different pattern-This is great for live use! Its so simple and intuitive and even though, step sequencing is all the rage, its good to not HAVE to sequence that way if you don't feel like it, but still have the option. What you get is a lovely little drum machine thats great for live beats and sample triggering with great midi implementation. Oh yeah and the tempo knob makes adjusting the tempo a lot easier than on most machines. I bought one of these for 15 bucks at a thrift store and sold it on ebay about a year later for 175 bucks, so a good investment and a cool machine.
