hey – i have the possibility to get an AR in mint condition for 800€ and want to ask how you use it and what sounds you can get out of the machine. i do own an octatrack and am very happy with it but would love it to have a machine to focus on for beat-making. here i have to say that the sound i’m looking for isnt a typical one, i love to make use of errors of machines or try to do stuff which isnt the primary usage. so the ability to use samples on the AR is great to start with i think.
please tell me if you think that the addition of the AR makes sense or would another drum-machine like a tanzbär do the same here in case of searching for experimental stuff for less money. or do you know a machine that fits better to build beats in polyrhythm and being able to destroy them on the fly. thanks
