Better Brand In Drum Machines

[Mikemaster G]

I need anyone's opinion on who's the better brand in making drum machines?

 

[open mind]

roland,akai.

try them out and call it a day.

 

[LDB]

Look no further than Akai or Roland

Akai #1 Roland #2, but if Roland can make the MV the same size as the MPC Roland will be #1 IMO.

 

[AMG]

Drum machine or drum sampler?

The Best Drum Machine IMO is the BOSS DR-880 which I think is still owned by Roland.

The Best Drum Sampler IMO would probally go to AKAI's MPC's.

Nobody I know is still actually using a drum machine so I assumed he's asking about drum samplers. That Boss was the choice back in the day though....damn! MEMORIES!

Boss was that shit..

 

[AMG]

boss dr-5...that was my baby!

 

[konceptG]

Roland R8mkII. King of all drum machines. Sometimes I miss mine (and my old R8 and R5)

 

[Sonorous]

i think Akai is the best because that what i use

i dunno... that Yamaha RY30 is crazy... but the drum sampler is what u would definately buy these days, especially since 99% of the old and new drum machines sounds are available as wav files for what? drum samplers.
