AS I posted on the other thread, I concur that Zoom makes great drum machines. I have an RT-323 which has the flash card, and 3 banks to play with. The sounds are great - I even sampled them all for use with the DR-008 in SONAR.

Zoom has more than surpassed Roland (I've had the DR-5 and the DR-770) in sound quality; as I said my only quibble is the inability to program with eigth note takt.

For $100, there isn't anything even close to the Zoom mirco composer; and its big brother (the RT-323 is there when you decide to move up (it has tabla, dumbek, sounds etc.)
