help please need to figure out which drumming machine is the best for my needs?
i was thinking of getting the akai xr20 for my first drumming machine, but i hate mainstream i am strictly underground head and mc pioneers and that drumming machine has mainstream samples and can be barely customized .i want a different sound so can anyone recommend a drumming machine thats portable, make my own samples, transfer samples by usb or anything of that nature. my list that i have is alesis sr18, akai mpc 500 but its too much so i'm not going to get it until i have money, and sp 404 which is the dopest i think so please help me out underground hip hop head producers i will try to keep hip hop fresh thanks
Best Drum Machine Manufacturers: Boss/Roland, Akai, Zoom, Alesis
Rolands are commercial, but great sound. Akai would be top pro gear, but expensive. Zoom are very efficient and not pricey. Alesis offer both pro and novice gear.
For a starter drum machine, I would recommend a Zoom. Simply because you can get one off ebay really cheap, and it'll teach you more about the specific features you desire in order to buy your next piece. You can always add and collect gear to form the rawest studio! I started out with a Boss DR 550, and Zoom 234. The Boss was twice the cost, but I liked the Zoom twice as much.
Also, you could sample either with vinyl, or now days they can sample any audio file via software. You even could sample your own self, or get real creative and sample various sounds to form a custom drum-kit. example: your voice for kick1, dog bark for kick2, car braking for snare, fence rattling for fills, clink two forks together for hi hat, etc... Software would give you endless opportunities.
Still, I am stuck using the Yamaha Motif ES8, and LOVE it. So that is another option, buy a sound station and programming machine. You can upload samples or tediously customize your own! But these machines are large, and expensive. Just different things fit different styles.. so you gotta find your niche.
Also, all gear is ultimately usb compatible, since there are audio cables that convert to usb. You can always check ebay for those, since your local store might not carry those.
Whatever you do... definitely keep it FRESH.
