pawn shops, buddy! i scored a used, good condition Alesis SR-16 for $250 a couple of years ago. Alesis seems like the best to me, then again I've never had my hands on a decent Roland. |

they are limited to a 1/32 quantize as other older drum machines (yamaha rx-11 for example) have a 1/64. although the memory on older drum machines is really weak. plus your limited to the sounds of it. i have both an es-1 and a yamaha rx-11. you can set up all the sequences on the yamaha and trigger the es-1 with midi. it's a good combo but the yamaha is still very limited with it's memory. i'd give a couple different ones playing around (if you know a place where you can) and then pick what you like best. |

I started out with a Yamaha RY-30. I think it is completely FM synthesis and sounds pretty old school. Kind of a click/tone analog feel. It still gets use occasionally although it needs a new plug. |

One thing I would love to do if I ever had the money would be to collect old gear. So much of it has its own personality and very distinctive unique sounds. |
