I have an MC-505
Its a good piece of gear. But if you think you are going to make a serious buy twards your music future.. Spend the extra money and get a Korg Trinity or a Yamaha Ex5
Look for a workstation with a Keyboard i think in the long run you will be better off.

the mc-505 is a great machine, and its complexities will take you awhile to truly understand. but, as things usually are with roland, if they had spent a few extra dollars on the machine, they could have made it better. every day i find some new limitation that blows my mind. i would definately suggest getting memory cards because this is not a rock solid machine, mine has crashed twice and i lost all of my work. it is not built to be beaten on, unlike the 307. but i believe it is a great studio machine.

Best sounding groovebox on the market. Has the same engine of the classics, so it's a dream come true to those not fortunate enough to get their hands on one of the originals. A bit pricy so consider the 307 (it has the the same sounds, but lacks the d-beam and a couple of other featues) if you're strapped for cash. D beam one of the coolest inventions to come around in a while. Manual is excellent, but sequencer is limited and a bit difficult. Probably best used as a module or with a sampler.
