I second the recommendation. I just got the Beat Garden ROM today. It's selling at zzounds for $150. Worth twice the price (which is close to it's normal selling price). Best cymbals I've ever heard on a machine. Maybe the best drums *ever*. I'm seriously loving this box. Sure, it doesn't sample, but I could care less. The wealth of ROM libraries is incredible. My wife said, "Wow, these sounds are a lot warmer than the 307." It's true. I think what turned me off was the bad techno beats it comes with. The on line stuff is truly horrible IMO. Once you dig past that crap you've got an amazing tool. It's UI leaves a bit to be desired, and it's got a steeper learning curve than the Roland and Korg stuff, but the manual is pretty good. If you don't like reading manuals, get something else. If you've got some time to spend, this is the box. The flexibility and sounds are worth the time.
