OK, so i want to get a drum machine and sequencer mainly for my live setup to hopefully let me go computer free. i've been considering my options for some time now and i am still stuck!
here are the different things I am considering....
Machinedrum
Jomox 999
DRM1 MK3 + mpc1000
drumstation + mbase11 + mbrane11 + mpc1000
i think there are pros and cons to each setup - obviously the machinedrum and jomox are simpler and more potable for a live setup. i've heard good and bad things about all these options and i'd really appreciate people's direct experiences as it is hard to try out all the options.
i guess my main priority is sound, but that is closely followed by usability within a live situation and price.
any input, and comments greatly received.
drum machine+sequencer....

yeah i think the drm1 is out for these reasons....tone-def wrote:DRM1 has no patch memory and it's big. it's awesome in the studio but playing live will be a tricky. i'm working on a computer free live set and i'm just concentrating on the EMX and now the Evolver.
what happened to your MFB?
the mfb is a fun and interesting piece of kit but it is very fiddly and not very flexible in a live situation.

why?nakoradiomies wrote:dont spend your money on the jomox..its not worth the price imo.
because you would get tr-909 witch is lot better than those new drummers
i have seen and tryed the jomox and it'seemd pretty versatile expecially for live sutation....
soundwise if you whant to buy a jomox only to have a 909 sound than get a roland, but the jomox has more to offer than just a 909 emulation imo..
i have to agree on the price....
back to topic if your getting the machinedrum consider the uw a good solution for the liveset...
the jomox can do a lot more than the 909. the 909 is 25 years old, would you really want to take something like that to gigs? also a common problem they have is the sequencers break and your left with just a sound module you control with midi.
i think you will be better of with either the jomox or the machinedrum. you can get more sounds out of the machinedrum but the jomox sound better.
