Answer by Jess S
I like the roland MC 505 – and post editions up to 808, very good for producing. Can use samples off your computer, keyboard, or pretty much anything.
I produce drum and bass, hardstyle, and various other forms of music – but these groove boxes are great for making anything..
sadly, atm I cant really think of anything else id love to have.. maybe a korg chaos pad, or electribe, but unsure..
