Yes I think I will stick with outboard drums for the most part… I agree that it can get expensive, but really eurorack in general isn’t cheap! 😂 I’m thinking of perhaps a Befaco Kickall in kit form, maybe another Pico Drums…although it is annoying that it doesn’t remember the last sample used… you have to start from scratch every time you turn it on!
I like the Drumbrute, but I don’t love it… ideally, I think I’d sell it to fund a Roland machine like the TR-6S… the Drumbrute sounds great and has a super easy interface, but has a rather narrow sound palette… I’ll probably sit on that decision for now though and focus on the rack instead.
