so i got this and so far ive been having alot of fun with it,
the sequencing of drums and bass is real cool as i had hoped.
the effects are awesome for making samples, i dont know how much it would rule live since theres a major cut out when you switch effects, and when you use the grab function it clicks, but you may not need to switch effects live, tweaking the knobs doesnt cut any sound out - which i read some people say
if you like slicer this machine rules because you can set the slice points but you cant sequence it like 1-5-6-7-3-4 or something you know what i mean - y ou can make it go forawards backwards or random which is neat for making a sample to be used.
so far ive gotten good results with it making some bass and hi hat loops. the voice mod is less like a vocoder and more like this automated synth line maker which could be cool plus, the effects that it shares with the 404 like filter, lofi, flanger, and ring mod are really different on this machine(imo) which i like.
also i dont really use midi cuz i dont understand it fully, but i do know that the sliders transmit midi data therefore it may be a real cool controller for something as well
thats all for my short review any questions ask, but overall its a cool, versatile machine since it makes noises and has effects and you can save the effects and phrases on the patch thing
