DR-01s : Best grab & go rhythm machine available

I have tried many accompaniment machines from way back with Alesis SR16, korg mini, both Beatbuddies, Trios, SDrum, Finhols, looper add-on drummachines, etc as well as manual Kickpedal & cajon, or homemade or commercial stomp boxes. Whether for home use, or gigging - this one, to me, is the best. It is small, light easy portable , battery or plugin power, can be DI into PA or amp. For acoustic just use as it comes - you can even do cafe gig if plugged into your PA. It's very intuitive and does what you expect it to do and the rhythm patterns suit all genre of music - styles are easy to create on the hoof, but also 50 memory slots gives a good selection for prepreparation for a performance. It is well made so all is good! - BUT - I look forward to the 2nd Generation which I would ask/hope includes a pedal option for "fills" to break the monotony, an option to override the speaker mute when DI-ed (I wish this existed on more low power amps to use as monitors), and thirdly built-in battery rechargability. They're not cheap to buy, such embelishments probably come at a cost - but I would pay a little extra for perfection! Well done Boss!
