Guest hahathhat Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 505 is bendable i'm told Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Warrior Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 I'm a spaz so bending is out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glass Plate Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 well, 707 is good and pretty cheap. 505 is good for bending that's close to being it. 606 is boobs good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beneboi Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 i own a 505 that i picked up years ago really cheap, i like it, i only use it for sampling and a couple of the effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest telikan Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Been thinking about getting a 707-- how useful is it compared to the 606? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velazquez Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 how cheap... why not just get an electribe er ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Warrior Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 626 for under fiddy quid? By the way i dont count 606/707 as crapper drum machines! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glass Plate Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 626 is pretty stupid unless you want to bend it, a lot of the crappier rolands have bad sounds are no good for syncing with stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest acridavid Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I have a 505. It's great as a MIDI trigger! :P I really never use it, got it for like 20 bucks or something. I think it sounds pretty shit and has.. no options. Really though, a nice MIDI interface for live performing ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Diao Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I've a 626 along with a 606 and 707, and its a pretty mean combo. I use the 626 for its conga, shaker, tamb, hats, all sorts of stuffs. I had it bent for a while, but then just sampled all the bent sounds I needed and took all the bends out. Its pretty solid, and you can get it for under $100 (~50 quid) easy.

Amen Warrior Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 Balls, it would've been a perfect machine to get my head round this circuit bending malarkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest iep Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 not really, you'd be better off with a 505 or an alesis hr16! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amen Warrior Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 But no-ones offering them for free. Although the hr-16 would probably be super cheap eh...thanks for suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modey Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 But no-ones offering them for free. Although the hr-16 would probably be super cheap eh...thanks for suggestion. hr-16s are great. the sequencer is freakin' rock solid, and great resolution too. i've heard some amazing bends done to them too!

I fucking love my HR-16 but I never use it any more. Would let it go for cheap maybe, or would prefer to trade it for similarly amusing gear.
