This machine is very limited but has a really raw bass drum and a killer tom than beats the pance off of alot of modern drum sounds. The cowbell is cool too. It doesn't have midi and can sound very repetitive with accent the only effect. Although if you can pick one up for pocket change the sounds above are well worth sampling. Although limited and old the sounds are well sampled and its nice, easy too play with and takes batteries. I made some killer loops with this that knock the socks off all modern electronic music. Not bad for something extremely limited in power. Also they're quite rare. Compared too 808 banks that sell more than big macs.

The sounds are pretty cheesy unless you put them through a bunch of effects. (Heavy Distortion works wonders) The programming interface is horrible but the coolest thing about this box is that it runs on batteries and it's extrememly portable. If anyone has a manual or info, I'd love to hear from you.

A lot of these selling on Ebay these days. Dont pay any more than $50 for one. Mostly good for the clap, though if you put a techsteppy beat out of it through heavy distortion it can be pretty heavy. The hats are interesting, but not great. I'd say save up another $50 and get a TR-707. For pics and sounds go to http://www.drummachine.com
