My band is slowly dissolving so me and the other guitarist are trying to form something new. We haven't been able to find anyone who plays drums and actually has drum gear so we're thinking of going with a drum machine for now.

We're trying to find something cheap and versatile. Like maybe around $120 or so.

Here's some ideas on the sound we're going for for drums:

Thanks!

u might wanna check these out on the cheaper side
zoom rythmtracks
alesis sr/hr 16
akai xr20
any boss ones. dr somethings
electribe er/es1

I especially recommend the Zoom or Electribes on the list above

Second the HR/SR 16...

Teenage Engineering is coming out with a $50 drum machine that seems fun

That teenage engineering thing is gonna be $50? Killer.

yea thats what theyre aiming for. i can't wait to see the final product.

Holy crap that thing sounds awesome! Especially for 50 bucks!

I've always been interested in the Korg DDD-1 but it seems the prices have gone up alot..

I think we'll be going for the sr-16. My bandmate knows someone selling one for kinda cheap and it has some ok sounds. We'll be throwing some effects on it anyways to color the sound a bit.

Soviet made ones

theres some good kicks and snares on there, and a nice palette of percussion. FX will def take u farther!

haha i used to look at soviet synths and drum machines on ebay alot. they aren't that expensive, but the shipping is killer

it's more something to look for in smaller used gear shops, honestly.
