So I managed to get my hands on that TR-330 and I am so happy! I need to try and fix the balance knob, but it sounds great:

I loved that thing, I mistreated it and it eventually crapped out so moved on to an mpc2000 but I mostly use it in the same exact way I wouldve used the HR-16

This. The step sequencer makes it so easy to program that it stays in my possession. Definitely needs a gain pedal or bitcrusher to come alive. I would think the Impact would be more rad with built in gain but I haven't heard one IRL. The OG version has a metronome out that I really need for syncing.
