I had an RY30 a long time ago and sold it to Gavin Hardkiss. Never heard from him what kind of stuff he got out of it. I loved it while it was mine, but moved on to a Jomox. Jomox is the way, the truth, and the light. On 11/21/05, cody jones <coda27@hotmail.com> wrote:

beign that the clip you provided is sample based you may want to look into a yamaha rs7000. the hands on control is good and knobby and you could probably use it for double duty to send CC data to your software. the rs7000 can have multiple audio outs and it does have about the highest PPQN resolution you're likely to find in a stand alone unit. expect the second hand cost to be better than 50% of the machinedrum price.

i love my electribe. I add the sounds i get off of it onto my software samplers. It has an awesome punchy bass if you program it correctly. Alot of people get the roland mc-505, its aldo a great drum machine.

speaking of roland...i forgot to mention the mc-909. it'd be worth looking at as well if you want sampling plus synthesis. my bandmate has an electribe MX which sounds cool and also has an excellent interface for "live" playing. ed c <echurch86@yahoo.com> wrote: i love my electribe.

so, I've been using an alesis sr-16($150 ish??) since 1992 (use it everyday and the same one still works fine, except buttons paint has worn). it is easy to use, real-time or quantization, can change phrase length, time sig, tempo, bpm tap, drum maps, great midi i/o for notes and clock(the master clock is the most solid feature I use it for). all the other fancy sample manipulation I just use the dm to trigger my sampler after I map it as a drum map (can also be easily done with a laptop, routing in a software sampler or similar emulation in abelton live).

Many thanks to all who gave me feedback! very much liking the look of the yamaha rs7000 at the moment... nice selection of features and decent expansion options! Love the nice knobby interface too, plenty of assignable controls! pretty taken with the mc909 as well!! Looks like a perfect piece of audio awesomeness. I tend to work with a lot of glitch and odd aliasing effects.. anyone here own a yamaha rs7000 or a roland mc-909? would love to hear a bit about it from a user of the machines themselves.
