We're having a great time using the SR 18 with its many full sounds. The preset patterns are well programmed and suited to fit in with all music genres. I especially enjoy utilizing some of the Hip Hop, Techno and one particular pattern refered to as "Jungle". All functions are generally easy to learn and handle. I would highly recommend the use of the SR 18 for making your live performances sound full. I utilize the SR 18 in a duo group.
