The mc-505 was my first seqeuncer/drum machine. I do not regret my puchase of it at all. You can buy one off ebay extremely cheap, it is easy to use (had mine for a week and i am already creating my own patterns) it has a very strong arpegiator and an extremely large amount of synth voices. I do fear though; seeing as i am inexperienced in seqeuncers/music production that i will have to replace it soon.

MC505 is one of the best musical investments I have ever made. I use it mostly as a drum machine and some bass parts as well but its capable of much more. Had it for about one year now and will never let it go.

The 505 is phatt, use it with a sampler and a sick drum machine and the possabilities are endless!sooo much bass.

Payed 500 $ and for the money I give it top marks. Had it for three days now and got the basics nailed. The presets are disgusting! Stay the fuck away from them! Make your own crap! It's easy enough with this thing. It seems to have deep editing posibilities which are nice if you are the type. For me it's a great scratchpad for writing quick patterns. Drums are nice in a cheesy way and I like the overal sound of the thing. The mixer is very handy as are all the controls on the front pannel. Saving can be tricky since it doesnt tell you wheather or not you are overwriting previous saved material. Part from that good stuff.

Great machine when used tastefully with other gear. Does wonderful rhythms and bass lines too. Combined with a good sampler and nice keyboard you have a strong set-up. The MC505 can go way way beyond the presets.
