  • Thanks for all of your advice ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
    Iโ€™m going to spend some time researching all of this.
    I should have mentioned that improvisation is important for me. I need to be able to jam with musicians playing traditional instruments.
    As well as storing sequences.
    Does that make any difference to the suggestions?

  • TR-8S is a great suggestion IMHO, and it is excellent for live jamming and so on, mainly because it has faders but it also has a really excellent fill mode, loads of stutter/filter effects, and usefully you can program a new pattern variation (with the sequencer playing) before switching to it. However, it only has one velocity-sensitive pad, itโ€™s not for finger drumming in an MPC fashion.

    Great drum machine overall though, I only sold mine to upgrade to an Analog Rytm Mk2.

  • You should check out the Bastl Thyme. Lots of examples on Soundcloud. You can do a lot with creative delays a mixer and some simple sound sources (band mates and/or a lil machine like the volca sample).

    Maybe a traditional drum machine is useful but it might feel a little limited.
