SoundMaster SR88 and Boss Dr.55

[timmerman]

Does anyone here use any of these drummachines?

I guess most of you will be familiar with the Boss Dr.55

My question to you is:

Do some of you experience that the stopcontrol does not always function as smoothly when you programme patterns?--I experience this mainly with the SoundMaster, which feels like it is a prototype of the Boss, the Boss one feels better and has a better response when you programme patterns--

There does not seem to be much info on the net about the SR88, apart from some people saying that is seems to be like a copy of the Dr.55

Would love to read some userreviews of people with a SR88, but then some of you here may use this drummachine.

So yep, the SR88 does work but one does have to be careful with the programming.

For those of you who are not familiar with any of those machines: To programme a pattern there are two controls: Start and Stop, and you use those to programme a pattern in the 16- or 12 step fashion. When you make a mistake you can start all over again since there is no display or anything.


Here some links with more info about the SR88:
