I've been doing research on buying a good drum/bass machines for home recording. I just bought a Yamaha AW4416 and I'm a guitar/piano player and need something so I can work on stuff at anytime of night/day. I've heard a lot of good things about the Roland DR660, dr 770, Alesis, and I was playing around with the Zoom 123 the other day and have to say that sounds fantastic for 150. But I figured you guys would be the pros on a stand out drum/bass machine. Is there a "holy grail" machine out there right now that you would say has amazing top quality sounds. I don't think this is as subjective as say "what's the best mic?" seeing that a drum machine either sounds realistic or it doesn't. I play modern rock and want great high snare sounds but also experimental ones- maybe something that would stand out from the crowd and usable bass sounds. I want to buy something good so I don't have to go out 6 months from and keep on rebuying cheapos. Thanks for any help!~
