It's good to hear, thanks for you comments.
I like that ghetto blaster reference :)

Well, I bought mine for it to give me an 808 style elongated booming kick, I
got rid of my classic Emu SP 12 Turbo sampling drum machine  to be able to
afford one (bought a 1 month old model off someone last year). I write and
release electro and I have to say that this gamble of mine fully paid off.
This unit is the future of electronic percussion. Buy one and join the
privaleged few!

Seriously though, If I were to categorise the overall sound of the unit
(based on the fact that I jack up the volume on most of all the machines), I
would have to say that MD reminds me of beats heard coming out of a ghetto
blaster. - I wonder if any of you lot agree with that statement.

It delivers all the tuffness, hardness, or boom, distorted, classic or
forward thinking percussion that you could ever wish for.

I don't use the internal sequencer - only as a sound module and still
consider it worth every penny invested.

Red lights flashing is always fun but what about  the sound of that thing
when you first turned it on.  First impressions ?

Finally: You guys who are waiting for it so hard, once you will have
the box in your hands you will lift it up , put it on the table, plug it in
, 
see the red lights flashing and I'm sure all the time waiting will be
erased in your flash memory ;)
