Pros & Cons
Pros
The direction book mainly focuses on how to record and compose your own beats and other midi functions of that nature. If you are like myself and not familiar with midi, there is a video on youtube that gives a brief primer to the idm02. Another way i... Read More
The mony spent on it is wery well used. One last hint about this component.
This ion ied01 set meets the immediate need perfectly. All you need is a throne or chair. Comes with an excellent drum machine which has tons of options.

Pads moving this is to me the worst aspect of the set

The pads will unadjust themselves pretty frequently so they require constant tightening
