Strengths
- Genuinely cheap real analog drum machine, offering true analog circuit character at a fraction of an 808's price
- Simple, direct button-based pattern editing keeps operation fast with zero menu-diving
- Its unusual bar-graph pattern display was a distinctive, genuinely intuitive way to visualize a pattern for its era
Trade-offs
- Only 4 user pattern slots and no MIDI at all, real limitations by any later standard
- Considerably weaker, thinner analog tones than the more powerful circuits in the 808/909
