  • Wonderful Buy!

    As reviewed by Mike on 6/24/2008

    If you're looking for a drum machine for the purpose of replacing a drummer, spend the extra hundred dollars on the next step up Alesis, this machine won't help you unless you only want eighties tones for acoustic drums. but if you want extra textures for your music, this machine is INCREDIBLE. The tones go from explosive and reverbed to crunchy and bright and the ease of use makes this controller a HUGE win. When it comes down to it, this is the most simple, keep it basic drum machine on the market, but with 16 voice polyphony and a seemingly endless amount of capabilities, it's the only one you need.

  • Excellent Little Drum Machine!

    As reviewed by Chas Tye on 10/31/2010

    I?ve been writing songs for a while, and creating good beats has been the most challenging part. I needed a drum machine that was easy to use and intuitive with a collection of nice sounds. This ALESIS-SR16 fits the bill perfectly. The preset beats are really nice, but what is most impressive is how easy and fast it is to create your own beats. It only took a few days to get a handle on how this machine operates. The manual that comes with the SR-16 makes it very to easy understand the functions of the machine right away. Now I?m ready to integrate the SR-16 with my keyboards, and I?m looking forward to creating hot tunes. Now that creating beats is much easier, I can concentrate more on melodies, bass lines, string parts, etc.. This machine is a great tool for anyone who needs a solid small and inexpensive drum machine. Because of that I HIGHLY recommend the ALESIS-SR16

  • SR 16 Lacking

    As reviewed by Cal Adams on 3/19/2010

    100 presets and so far I've only found 3 I can use and not a damn one in 3/4 time. Looks like I'm going to be doing a lot of programmming -- something I had hoped would be at a minimum.
