  yoTrakkz's review "classic drum machine"

  Characteristics

  If you play electric guitar and don't own one of the Boss DR 110 drum machines then you are missing out big time. The drum and bass sounds are great as well as the guitar effects. There is a huge amount of flexibility with this unit... from customizing your guitar tone & effects, to creating your own drum & bass kits... its a very deep unit. But that doesn't mean it isn't fun or easy to use. In fact, the only downfall I've had with this unit is that I just lose track of time playing with it. If you are learning how to play guitar, then this unit will help you so much. For instance, there are some great patterns that help you embrace scale modes like the major scale.

  Utilization

  The fact that you can dial up a pattern, instantly set the key & tempo, and then jam along with it using great guitar sounds makes the unit worth the money, but it can do a whole lot more. And if you like playing with those long, trippy delays, well, the DR110 keeps the delay in time with the song, so you can base the delay off rhythm rather than milliseconds (but both options are available). Every guitar instructor/school should have one of these available for their students.

  Sounds

  Great sounds all around, patterns are realistic and this component gives all the versatility you will need. The ability to change the kit or tempo to a pattern makes this machine priceless. Adding a baseline is a bonus amd the sounds are all there.
  
  What do you want from a drummer, and a bass player? To show up on time. Machines always there, waiting. To keep a beat and not miss a note. The machine is spot on. When playing smaller gigs, you don't have to worry about needing extra space for a drum set and bass amp. Plus you get all the money.

  Overall Opinion

  Every guitar player that wishes they had a drummer and bass player to jam with to help push their playing should have one of these. I love it.

  burebista's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  I read that the noise generator (used for all sounds except the kick) is digital. Construction rather low.

  Utilization

  It's easy, but to edit the track of an instrument you have to <span class="arial-24-gris-b">rewrite the entire track, but still not dificil. It's better to cast a glance in the user manual for how to compose a song or the transmission of signals is made ​​by trig accents. The volume pot is a bit of balance dificil use in practice is not an equalizer: unions are stronger to the left, but with no less acute for the snare. The hi-hats and cymbals are stronger to the right, clap, too, even though the manual says otherwise.</span>

  Sounds

  bass drum - quite short, but not all bad snare - good clap - I'm no great fan of the clap sound, but I find it very good hi-hats, cymbal - I like it, it upset the ears a bit, but I I heard much worse on some other bar I listened <span class="conjuguaison">to the e 'Zique made ​​with TR-606, and I find common intruments (the others clap and toms) rather different on both, the DR-110 has a specific sound.</span>

  Overall Opinion

  I did a piece connecting <span class="arial-24-gris-b">a DR-220 by trig, it works well. I wanted to do more with music, but alas the screen no longer displays the first 4 instruments at the top. Other data are still posted and it still works, but the programming step-by-step became a little galley without the display. (Ed: I have repaired! See the trick. The construction of this box is good as I thought, but it does not sound and features, so my opinion, better) I think I'd like this box paced</span> more if it had separate outputs and MIDI, but I'm not <span class="arial-24-gris-b"> </span> <span class="arial-24-gris-b">sure</span> I want <span class="arial-24-gris-b">to</span> change it as I do not like the sounds too. Buy only I <span class="conjuguaison">will not purchase another, nor with 40 Euros (or 50 but 40 <span class="arial-24-gris-b">is</span> about</span> right, I paid 90 it has been 2 years).

  Characteristics

  It is not noon. But one input and one MIDI output can, I think, is hack ..!!!?

  Utilization

  Very simple config

  Sounds

  Haaaaaaa! The PoumTchak the early 80's. Any one time, I tell myself! For those who make electro is good, the true, the vintage.Si you make of Hard with a big sound very heavy battery Hell's Angels, that's not what you need.
  
  this box is nothing more realistic than itself and that's what's good. For quadra who, like me, want younger than twenty years on a component, the top o)

  girolas's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  But only 6 typical analog sounds, standards for those who love (bass drum, snare, hihat closed or open, cymbal and clap.
  
  edition of the patterns is very simple.
  
  we learn to use it in 10 minutes.
  
  output jack
  
  headphone mini jack
  
  9v battery or power supply (a practice that is)
  
  "Trig" and "P-bus"

  Utilization

  There's no easier!

  Sounds

  Sounds are hyper ralistes to use a piece of Brus ..
  
  trs dats but for those who want the real 80's sound is unstoppable.

  Overall Opinion

  You can still find good prices, and it is almost an Electro Harmonix.
  
  Worth a cot.

  A pearl of machine that requires no less than being "coutquot;
  
  no frills for this MODEL but a real analog sound ....
  
  sequencer "roland" walking piles ...
  
  and the famous P-BUS ....
  
  for who loves the original ....

  Utilization

  No need for manual machine with a 1983 ..........................

  Sounds

  Sounds are analog electro, finally, it really cost the sounds of the DR-110 to make it a opinion.mais "pte" really !!!!!!

  Overall Opinion

  If we want a 10 instruments, one ZAPE, otherwise it costs a can, and the ratio quality / price on the box in his home studio !..............
