TR-808 like sounding budget drum computer
Not produced anymore. A very little drum computer which comes pretty close to the sound of the TR-808. All analog generated sounds. It was replaced with the newer MFB TANZBÄR LITE which costs twice as much, Not sure if that price is justified. The MFB-522 is pretty good.
An 808 Mini Me
I love it. It takes up little space, has good sounds in it, even if the sequencer is basic. I sequence it with other things. The outputs can be a little noisy, but that's about my only complaint. As far as gear with minipots goes, these are nice. I've had a lot of 2hp (the company) modules with these types of pots and they all feel awful to turn; Not on this little guy!
I wanted a real analog TR808 sounding drum computer. This one is analog and sounding a bit as a TR808. Only cons is its all mini jack output.
