  • What are some of the best drum machines on the market today? Which one is right for you? How much do they cost? Fess answers these questions and more. What drum machines do you love? What did Fess get wrong? Let us know in the comments.
    Find the drum machines in this video at bit.ly/48e7c2u.
    EDIT: Title card for the "Elektron Syntakt" reads "Elektron Digitakt", another Elektron groove box that can do some solid drum machine-ing. But we meant the "Syntakt".

    No mention of the Elektron Analog Rytm???? What the what? The Syntakt is in the list and it's... fine. But the AR Mk2 is the flagship and, IMO, the best drum machine out right now. It was just upgraded yet again with euclidean mode, scale pads, and yet more synth models (now 33 in total!), plus it's a sampler. Come on Reverb!

    The IK Multimedia Uno Drum Machine is the one i own , to me the simplicity layout friendly use is just a concept that no other brand have . The concept is just perfect and really would love to see IK Multimedia bringing back the Uno new version . The only complaining about the Uno is the noise when using the usb port to power up 😔 other than that is just the most perfect intuitive drum machine

      @distantcomets maybe because it's cheaper, but I figured the 1.7 update would've landed it on this list. The Syntakt is more groovebox than drum machine

    Guitar here, drum machine noob. Does anyone know if you can use a midi drum machine with a footswitch to toggle between verse and chorus for live gigs? The only thing I've found that can do that is the Beatbuddy, but it's pricey.

    I'm surprised there wasn't a mention of the Novation Circuit Rhythm. It's a great sampler that you can get all sorts of sound design and rhythmic possibilities from. I even use it to mono sequence other instruments in my chain.

    • @dannyvalentino328
      @dannyvalentino328 Před 6 měsíci +5

      The video was about pure drum machines, not samplers. If you include the Novation Rhythm, then you might as well include all the MPC's, Maschine+, Roland SP 404 MK2, Ableton Push standalone, Elektron's own Digitakt and Octotrackt, Akai Push etc.

    The Korg Drumlogue, really? It is one of the most basic drums machines and such a big disappointment. So bad no one wanted to buy it so they slashed the price to clear out stock that wasn’t moving and now they’ve discontinued it after they barely released it. How the Elektron Analog Rytm didn’t make this list? Wut the heck is this lol

      @@Newmachinemusic good correction. Syntakt has a SONG MODE which chains up to 99 rows in sequence, with optional row repeats and row name ("verse", etc) , and where any row can be up to 1024 beat steps. It allows storing up to 16 songs.
      So by paying nearly $1,000 this rudimentary ability is possible.
      So my revised statement.
      Yet nearly all of them can't arrange beat sequences into multiple song sections to play a complete song.
