Grey RYTM Mk2 ($1,050) or TR8s ($400) (both secondhand)

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Analog RYTM Mk2 (The Grey Meanie) thoughts?</p> <p>My drums were initially deployed by the Volca Beats, then Drumbrute, then the Digitakt and now the TR8s.</p> <p>I love the TR8s, here’s what I specifically love the most.</p> <ul> <li><p>amount of knobs for stuff like ‘decay, snappiness’ etc… even though it’s not analog, they implemented my favourite part of an analog drum workmule.</p></li> <li><p>I didn’t use the sampling at all - mainly because I felt the only things I wanted were 606/707/808/909 samples, but I was young and naive. All the above and more are present, with the ability to shape the sound like I mentioned in the first point.</p></li> <li><p>I play exclusively DAWless, but I really liked the ability to use Roland software to record from the external inputs. Is that a thing on the RYTM?</p></li> <li><p>Autofill.</p></li> <li><p>Insane amount of per track and global effects.</p></li> <li><p>External Inputs L+R and the ability to use the effects on them.</p></li> <li><p>Trigger out.</p></li> </ul> <p>BUT, I miss the deep and sequencing and controlling of external gear via MIDI (as I’m dawless, the Digitakt was perfect for me).</p> <p>—————-</p> <p>TL;DR:</p> <p>To cut this ‘short’, I’ve been offered a 2nd hand RYTM Mk2 (the grey one) for $1,454 AUD ($1,050 US).</p> <p>I bought the TR8s for $410 USD (second hand but practically new) so I’ll probably sell the Roland TR8s for dirt cheap as a New Years present to whoever messages me first on FB Marketplace.</p> <p>Worth it? Am I going to regret this?</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/CapellaPolaris"> /u/CapellaPolaris </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/rtlq5j/grey_rytm_mk2_1050_or_tr8s_400_both_secondhand/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/rtlq5j/grey_rytm_mk2_1050_or_tr8s_400_both_secondhand/">[comments]</a></span>
