A Classic!
It's so great that you can still get a classic drum machine like this brand new after so many years of it's release, the sounds are awesome and immediately recognizable, the sequencer however is very clunky to program but if you have an external MIDI sequencer or can control if from your interface its an amazing value for money, gives that classic new-wave The Cure and old school underground metal type sound. a real classic for a really good price
Simple and effective
Not being a digital nerd, I wanted a decent drum machine to practice and maybe use in "small-gig" situations. Back in 80s I had a Roland machine and it was so easy to use. This Alesis has the ease of use and is a worthy replacement for the old unit, no frills, does what it should.
