UTILIZATION

Super boring to use. Write a pattern, edit sounds, play a patten in mutant instruments, nothing is practical.
I'm not too stressed this is not true, but it is clear that this is not a success.
Midi to the limit.

SOUNDS

So this is where it hurts the most ... I do not like the sound at all! The kick and toms are analog plastics, lack depth, hihats and cymbals sampled are tiresome. The snares to 909 is not bad but I find such lack of potato.

OVERALL OPINION

Come on, I know some people like it, it's true that I have tested let's say a week before selling it, so it's a matter of taste we agree (except for the use very boring anyway).
I have a lot of analog drum machines (MFB 522 I love a lot) or PCM (TR 707, Casio RZ1) or analog modeling (ER1), and there for me MFB crashed!
I may not be the audience for this machine, but I would suggest if you can try before you buy, because this box does not necessarily fulfill its promises.
