SR18 : Classic Updated

I was an SR-16 user from the 90s. I did a ton of songwriting demos and self produced CDs using the SR-16. It's not a real drummer, but if you know how to use it, it's a damned good replacement when there's no drummers around. So, when my SR-16 blew out on me, I replaced it with this baby. It's an upgrade - it's just as easy to use, but sounds better. I haven't gotten into using it live yet, but I will. So far, it's better than its predecessor and I am all good with that.

PROs: When you get the basics of it, it does what its supposed to do and can be used for pro recordings and live shows.

CONS: it's not Steve Gadd... but if you don't expect it to be and use it for what it is, it's excellent. The bass stuff in there is icing. I've not used it yet as I also play bass, but the patches sound good.
