Old school drum machine.Review date: 2010-08-15 Rating: 6 out of 10Features a wide range of sampled drum sounds and 50 patterns with variations. As it stands, it is more suitable for rock rather than dance music. Although the drum sounds can be tweaked and the user can create his/her own patterns and drum sets, this is rather cumbersome as it is done via the front panel. There is no PC based editor and the MIDI documentation is sparse. Remote setup is done by system exclusive messages and not even Alesis tech support could supply the details. I managed to work it out using a trial version of a shareware editor.
Good value if bought second hand, but I would go for a more modern machine (this is fifteen years old) if paying over £100, especially if dance music is your thing.
