THE PROS & CONS

Authentic 909 sonics, parameter editing and programming system, plus unlike the original 909 you can continue playing beats while switching between write and play modes

Far less background noise than original

Separately programmable front-panel trigger

Additional outputs only available via USB when connected to a computer with relevant driver and DAW software

A lot cheaper than a real 909, but still a bit pricey for a ‘onetrick’ digital box
