Purchased a Roland drum machine. Lot's of samples but no real sound building capabilities.

Any recomendations? I want to build a complete percussion part for a song with rolls, bells, etc.
 
Use a MIDI sequencer on your computer to drive your drum machine, like everyone else. For god's sake, man, it's 2001!
 
If it's anything like the Dr. 660, which I think it is, read the pattern write section in the user manual. This should tell you how to create individual patterns (rolls, flams, fills, etc.). It's a pretty decent machine once you figure out how to use it. trust me I've been there.
 
i have the dr-660 and are capable of getting good results, the 770 is even better. 1 tip- spend lots of time with it after awhile you will understand and it will be easyier to take the ideas from your brain and make them an the 770. Ive spent hours makeing drum parts for like 2 guitar riffs.
 
The Boss DR-770

is completely programmable in real time or step time, whatever. Just read the manual, it's not hard to create individual patches, then compile them into a song.

All my tunes were done with the DR-770, but I spend alot of time programming to get the drums to sound natural.
