The MC 909 is the ultimate Groovbox? can we do better (certainly in terms of ergonomics can be a little strange? roland but hey it's always like this?) lack a second MIDI output see three? and above a second MIDI input
UTILIZATION
The functions are huge! And the very effective midi sequencer (Roland has extensive experience in MIDI sequencers) screen super useful for composition, and especially the function groove pattern to give a little more realism in particular all drum patterns. The song mode is against a little disappointing, but against some>> one can almost make a pattern piece!
SOUNDS
I do not use the internal sounds that I find as usual with roland not very "warm" (but for models is super fast to make grooves) I mainly used the MC 909 as a midi sequencer, controller noon, sampler and drum machine is the rest of his are external sources.
OVERALL OPINION
It's the ball! and I think to keep at least 5 or 8 years to beat, not a material that is sold as once we control is the stuff for the long term. It lacks 2 additional MIDI out would avoid the purchase of a rack noon to control various sound cards.
+ The product is an internal memory of 16 MB non-volatile is a saying that you can put your best sounds in to avoid the charge card or a PC via USB for CD ignition
I put my personal all the sounds of vintage drum machine sounds like they are very short in general mono 16 mo do this about thirty boxes full!

I hope the next will be a Mc non-volatile memory and a more consistent analog modeling synthesis in a smaller size but keeping the screen
(FYI It was now 3 1 / 2 years that I have the MC 909 and I must say that the quality is still there! I use it very regularly and the buttons are always on top, it is true that is not very nice and large but very sturdy short is really the material of groove pro)
