I have had three SR16s, but decided to try the 18 to use on the road. I was so impressed, I bought another to have in my studio. I haven't used the 16 again.

Best sounding on the market for the money. I use it in a top 40 band. I would rather have the volume on the spin wheel like my old sr15.

Great Drum Machine!!!! I've use it for church, weddings, and gigs. I highly recommend to every musician that does not have a live drummer.

Absolutely the most complicated piece of electronic gear I've ever bought. Would never have gotten it had I know I needed a Harvard PhD to figure it out. I study the manual every day but still can't make it do what I want. Maybe I'm just stupid (I really don't think so) but I'll probably end up putting it in a closet and getting something I can figure out, without having to go to graduate school. IfI could return it I would do so in a heartbeat. Very disappointed.

Our band planned to use the SR18 as a plug and play during practices when the drummer is not available. We are a wedding band that plays different type of music. We are very disappointed as none of the pre-programmed patterns can be used. They are all so weird! When we tried to create patterns with the pads, it sounded so ruff.
