| I have two of them. I step write patterns and chain them together. You can't do linear sequences. The swing percentage will help you zero in the feels you want. I believe there is a web-site of DR5 users that is very helpful. I love the sounds, especially the finger bass, upright bass and vibs sounds. |

I use one. I save my songs to a 3.5" floppy on a Peavey Midi-Filer. I then use the Midi-Filer to play my songs from. I can hold lots of songs on a single disk!

Farris, if you were a dog, you'd be dead by now. How much is it? I bought mine brand-new for $550 a piece.
(and that's in Canada, where we usually have to pay more than Americans) |
