Talked to Dave Smith about this at NAMM. I have submitted feedback to Roger Lynn as well for it. I think it shall be the truth. Disappointed in no digital in and out though...
What does it do? Is it like an mpc with drum sounds in it?
its a drum machine based on sound synthesis. Electro beast. No sampling capabilities, just drum sounds n sequencing. Should be optimized for live performance
Not electro at all. Straight up sampling drum machine. The knobs on the left of the Dave smith version are a series of insane filters and oscillators, all with knobs, that you can route your sampled sounds through. Solid State memory for your samples too and according to Dave, more sampling time than you would need.

i wanna see what the sequencer is like although i'm sure it's going to be good. and i'm still amazed at the prices they are being introduced at. shows you how much akai marks up their garbage
So is the analog version a full out synth plus a drum machine??? I'm a bit confused, sounds like it is and somewhat based on the prophet synth. At any rate this is pretty exciting, you could get pretty creative with this. Nice price too.

Oh hell yes.
damn. My bad i didnt realize that. And i started the thread! oops. Ill have to read up more
so, if I'm reading this right, the digital version is exclusively a sample-based drum machine, where as the analog has synth architecture in addition to sampling capabilities?
Now that i know it has inputs for sampling and reading the full specs for the analog version i will definately be pinching pennies for the piggy bank to pick this thing up when it drops. I have been wanting a DSI synth for a while now, but this is more my steez. I think the BoomChick was rumored to be be synth only so thats where my misconception came from..

* Stereo inputs for sampling, audio processing or triggering sounds.
Oh hell yes.
or at least the coolest decoy shell fanciness evar...
