It is fully described below.
The pre-recorded sounds are fine, since I use a two years, I have not toured the creation of pattern.
What I like is the super simple footswitch that you can buy elsewhere than with Alesis.

UTILIZATION

Super simple setup.
Very easy to use.
The manual is sufficient.

SOUNDS

Sounds very much like a real battery. Is sampled with CD quality.
I play rock and it's very realistic.
I use it as a metronome improved, ie with the same pattern that turns up time that I stopped at the pedal. To do this it does very well.
All sounds are realistic.

Edict of 19/10/08
Now I check the pattern directly in the compositions, it is super easy, I can fancy small (turnover) ...
Now I have two years I think we made some concerts full of repeated and it is still going strong

OVERALL OPINION

I do not like is that for the moment I can not vary the tempo within a song automatiqe, or so I failed (which is possible) So for the music I make, it requires a manual adjustment (or pedal). Which in itself does not suit me because I use it to supplement my guitar when I sing.
Very satisfactory if it again, to live is better if there is a Mr Rhythm in the group because it does not do everything alone, especially if you want to leave room for improvisation .. . like all drum machines.
As they say on some sites if I am the fly or I will seek to buy one for simplicity. I would advise any guitarist or bassist who wants to learn to play square! This is a great tool for homework.
For the cons to live a somewhat more complete configuration would be most successful. I'm not able to do everything I need with my gift alesis is a pity, because the sound is very good. But for now I enmène on my concert and it rolls. One of my songs went to radio, I assure you it is as powerful a battery!
