    Default Help me out (DRUM)

    Ok so earlier today I got to play around with a friends NI Mashine. I was getting a little frustrated but It was my first time every playing around with one but it seemed really awesome. I was wondering if there was something kinda like it but more for someone whos barely getting into production. More entry level. Also that I can play with live during a set & remix on the spot. Your opinions on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, but for what you get with the Lite version, it is totally worth it. For drumming, it comes with both Impluse and Simpler. That is all you need to get started with drumming. Watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmbYeD43hWs

    Plus, you can upgrade to full or suite version cheaper (i think) than just buying them outright.
