alright, so all this hype about the machinedrum being dopeass and "the
first real Drum-Synth"... i just have to ask:

how cool is it compared to the jomox gear?  does anyone have both?

my situation/needs:  i write freeform/trancecore so i usually use stock
909 samples for hats/crash/snare... i usually generate my kicks using
stomper or some of the cool drumsynths from buzz.  i'm looking at the
jomox xbase or airbase or machinedrum.  any other ones i should consider?

i've got a sid (though i barely use it) and a ton of other really
highquality gear (access virus, waldorf q, emu xl1, roland 505,
synthechno teebee 303, mpc2000, and loads more)  like i said before i've
got some killer drum generating software, but no actual physical unit that
kicks ass in the drum department (correct me if i'm wrong).  in my opinion
all the gear i just listed is mostly for synth sounds except some stock
drum sounds out of the 505 and xl1.

please let me know if i need the machinedrum.
