Well...picked mine up mint from ebay for $150....not too shabby considering it was MINT..i thought it was your basic 4 crappy drum kits drum machine...but once i dived into it...it was great...there ARE 808 and 909 sounds on here, woohoo!! since it runs on batteries and is so small, i can fit this right on top o my keyboard, its great...perfect for live use..i cant believe this is sooo underrated...wow 5 outta 5

Sounds pretty good for sort of "standard" e-drum sounds... I use it in conjunction with samples and other drum box's. To save your settings it must have batteries, when the batteries go your settings go... I find it usefull for adding instant drums to a sketch.. cool and worth $150, but not more (I got mine free...Thats really why I love it!)

I have the original DR-550 (not the mkII). The difference between these two is the mkII has more patches (about 91 against 48 or so in mkI), with more 'electronic' sounds (808,909,...). One of the things I like most is its portability. You can plug it some batteries and carry along wherever you want. It is my first drum box, so I can't tell you many in comparison with others, but the editing is fairly simple, altough not perfect. The samples sound very good; you can alter its Decay, Color, and Pan.
