    These guys are great!! They got back to my questions very quickly and were willing to work with me on the price. Drums were in excellent condition and packaged well...... I'll definitely be buying from them again soon! Shipping you ask? I swear they couldn't have gotten the drums to me much faster had they lived in the same neighborhood! AAA+++++. Thanks Guys!!!

    Just got this turntable to use for listening as my old technics sl 1500 mk1 needs service, and I wanted something close. The item arrived well packaged with all accessories. It was better than described as it was ebay refurbished listed as good but actually closer to excellent in my humble opinion. Shipping was fast, and it having been thoroughly test and vetted before shipping an incredible value. I put on my funk acrobat and nude elliptical cartridge, and wallah! Poor mans Technics indeed!

    Great, has some "issues"

    First, this is a great drum machine. Fully programmable, reasonably intuitive, excellent sound, very versatile for live performance. That said ... Main "issues": The bass line is on by default, and their tech support is useless. Also, the owners manual has a lot of errors. The big problem is the bass line. Each pattern has a bass line that plays along, and in a random key! They don't even tell you what key it is - very bizarre. However, There is a way to "permanently" (you can turn it back on) turn off the bass line. Basically, you reduce the bass volume to zero and save the setting. Actual procedure is too complicated for this review, but it can be done. I posted it on the Alesis forum. Anyway, great machine once you get rid of the ridiculous bass part. I am very happy with ...

    Some improvements over SR16

    Poor execution in several area but excellent in others. Has 3/4 time patterns unlike the SR16. Has great sound but is primarily 16 beat patterns. NOT good for live performances where 8 beat patterns are the best. Battery powered is cool but it can eat batteries because of the bright screen. If you know how to write bass lines great! Otherwise it's a useless feature and annoying as hell to turn the bass off every time you turn the machine on. I wouldn't buy another one and continue to use my sr16 regularly..........

  • Great Drum Sounds!

    This is a great drum machine. Right out of the box it’s easy to understand and use—if you give the manual a glance. For the more advanced functions, a more intensive study is necessary. One thing the Alesis SR-18 comes with is a printed list of the presets and options! Any other device I’ve purchased has not come with any list, nor has there been one available online. 🙁 So the preset and user preset list makes it easy to go thru each drum quad and mark down your faves. The drum background made it easy for me to gig in public for the first time! I could play along with a selection of beats that I chose the night beforehand. I’m very happy with this unit.

  • The Alesis SR-18 rocks!

    This is a wonderful drum machine, very instinctive set-up and easy to work with. I had previously owned a couple of Boss units and I thought of them as perfectly fine, but the Alesis sr18 really takes it next level. I'm excited to do music again as a result of this machine!

  • Alesis SR 18 Digital Drum Machine

    This is Not a Toy! It's a Very Good Drum and Bass Accompaniment to Musicians Playing/Practicing/or Recording Their Own Levels of Musical Knowledge. I Have Been Playing Acoustic Guitar for Over 40 Years. It Took Me Thousands of Hours of Practice to be An Intermediate Good Player! So, In Other Words, It May Be A Plug & Play Format With Very Excellent Sound, Options and Versatile Connections, You Must Be Patient and Have an Understanding of the Machine and Musical Knowledge. All that Said, I Recommend Buying This. Read the Instructions ( More than Once ), Experiment with It, Read the Reviews. It Seems Complicated at First, but Give it a Few Hundred Hours of Practice and Understanding. You'll be Happy, and Proud of What You Sound Like After Understanding, Accompaniment to Your Talent Over ...
