This is one drum machine notFrom Future Music CD issue 78. A 3 track pattern sequencer for rhythm, bass and external MIDI control, 400 Preset rhythm patterns, 100 User patterns, 128 Preset drum kits, 64 User drum kits and 20 songs. All in one tidy little unit. The top of the plastic case is pretty well crammed full of those nice rubbery function buttons and performance pads and a row of 8 knobs along top deal with modifying the audio signal. Unlike the diminutive Dr.Sample, which has 18 flashing backlit translucent buttons, the Dr.Groove has only five flashers, none of which are the drum pads, a shame but probably a good thing for battery life. Lack of velocity sensitive instrument pads is also a big disappointment (although it does respond over MIDI). The LCD display is a standard 'dark grey on light grey' 32 digit affair with no back light and hence almost invisible on a dimly lit stage. External power is supplied by a standard Boss 9v wall wart PSU. DEDICATED PADS For a budget unit the DR202 has more dedicated controls than you would usually expect to find, which is fine by me and even though most of the editing controls are multi-function the editing process is still quite straight forward, once you take a few a cursory scans through the instruction manual.

When switched on the DR202 defaults to Pattern mode which allows you to start playing back some groovy beats immediately. If you select a new pattern while a current pattern is playing the lower half of the LCD shows the next pattern to be played (see box for a list of preset pattern styles). At any time while a pattern (or song) is running you can play along with the drums, bass or an external MIDI source (eg.These are marked with a C to C scale and the names of a basic drum kit: Kick 1, Snare 1, Open HH, Hit 1 and so on. The pads play the bass and drum voices from whichever kit is programmed into the current pattern but you can change to other preset and custom kits while patterns are running. THE BANK OF INTERACTION If that isn't enough interaction for you then there's also the option of twiddling a few knobs. These fellas really spice up the sound and are what set the Dr.Groove apart from most other run of the mill drum machines. Having 14 VCFs at your disposal is a pretty awesome thought and the preset kits don't really take advantage of the extremes I'm sure some users are quite likely take this instrument to. Also with the additional ability to record ANY VCF knob movements to a pattern in realtime and you begin to appreciate what a capable little monster the DR202 is. How about an 808 or 909 kit with each percussion voice (and the bass) modified by a sweeping resonant VCF, mmm.music to my bleeding ears. Though it's not all plain sailing if you get the urge for a bit of 'hands-on' modifying over a pattern with previously recorded knob twiddling, as you AND the Dr.Groove fight over who has control of those fabulous filter sweeps. BEE PEE EM Patterns will always play back at the BPM they were programmed in (whether in Song or Pattern mode) but the BPM can be changed at any time by pressing the dedicated BPM button. With either a User or an edited Preset pattern the LCD shows two values, a fixed RECOMMENDED BPM (the Pattern BPM) and an adjustable BPM parameter.
http://dayalindia.com/userfiles/boss-audio-r1100m-manual.xml
Once in this mode you can enter a new BPM using the data dial (to the nearest 10th of a BPM) or use the Tap button to change the BPM 'on the fly'. To be honest I found the Tap method frustrating, and sometimes not too accurate. The Tap BPM rate is calculated from the first four beats you tap out, at which point the display changes to indicate: TAP BPM. Solution: Discipline, four taps and no more. If either control is turned clockwise beyond the OFF position the LCD changes to show the current effect parameter value, pressing the right-hand cursor button scrolls the display through the various effect parameters for the current kit, which can then be adjusted using the data wheel. There are 8 reverb types, from halls to rooms, each with adjustable decay time and level and two types of delay, panning delay and stereo delay. The delay time can be set in milliseconds (5 ms - 450 ms) or in BPM related time divisions (10 settings from half-note triplets to sixteenth note triplets). Although the effects features are limited they sound fine within the scope of a typical dance based rhythm. The effects parameters can be changed in realtime while a pattern or song is playing but any adjustments made can't be recorded to a pattern, as with the VCFs, and any changes made are lost if you select a new kit as it's impossible to perform a save while a pattern or song is playing. RECORDING A PATTERN As with most pattern based drum machines you can record rhythm patterns in real time or step time. The most obvious difference is that you don't need to specify which track to record to as drums, bass and external MIDI are allocated automatically, but the first thing to do before recording a pattern is to select a drum kit and BPM rate using the dedicated buttons. Realtime recording is the default mode and can only be activated by first selecting a User pattern. This can be either an empty location, an existing pattern or one of the preset patterns copied into an empty User location.

Pressing REC button puts the Dr.Groove into Record Standby mode and sets the REC button flashing at the current tempo and starts the metronome ticking. You can also practice tapping out rhythms along with the metronome until you are ready to go for a take, a which point you hit the REC button (or use the foot switch option). And basically that's it, simple. Adding (or overdubbing) bass lines or external MIDI notes is done in exactly the same way as track allocation is handled automatically. Step Time recording (also used for editing patterns) involves slightly more effort. Editing options available within Step Time mode are changing the Kit, changing effects, deleting and inserting notes, adjusting gate time, inserting portamento values, inserting Rolls, instrument timing shift, mute individual instruments (without deleting them) and copying and deleting patterns. If an external source such as a MIDI keyboard is used to input drum or bass data the Dr.Groove will record (in Real or Step Time) note velocity for bass and percussion instruments and portamento data for the bass. KIT IN A BOX The DR202 contains 128 preset rhythm kits each containing 13 different percussion sounds and one bass voice. Kit styles include Hip Hop (27 types !), Drum n' bass, Techno, House, Jungle, Electro, Ambient, Acid Jazz, Funk and even a couple of Industrial kits. Of course there are plenty of Roland TR drum machine kits and a few customary, Rock, Pop and Latin kits. 64 user kits are available, with various programmable parameters for each of the 14 voices. These include: Instrument type (from 256 available), level, pitch, pan, effect send and cutoff, resonance and decay for VCF control, not a bad line-up. Kit construction basically involves tapping a pad, selecting a voice for that pad adjusting the parameters for the voice and moving on to the next pad. Kits can also be named and copied.

I must say I sometimes found the limit of 13 percussion instruments per kit a slight hindrance for creating really adventurous custom set-ups but nevertheless some pretty decent kits can be put together quickly and easily if you can't find one from the 128 presets. SONG TIME Once all your rhythm patterns are assembled you can think about putting a song together which is achieved in a similar manner to Step Time pattern recording, but with less options to worry about. Press the Song button (for Song Mode), select an empty song location from the 19 available, give it a name, hit the REC button and use the data dial to select from the available Preset or User patterns. A Song BPM figure (40 - 250) can be programmed to override the pattern BPMs and patterns can be inserted or deleted into an existing song and completed songs can be copied to new locations. ARSENAL OF SOUNDS The Dr.Groove includes a full compliment of 207 drum, percussion and SFX samples and 49 bass samples, including essential dance stalwarts such as the TR707, TR808 and TR909 and acoustic, electronic and distorted kick drums, snares, cymbals, blips, clicks, vinyl scratches (which the manual quaintly refers to as 'plastic scratches'), reversed percussion, even the ancient Roland CR78 is included. Bass samples include everything from sawtooth, square and sine waves, electric and acoustic bass guitars, various SH101 waves and of course a selection of TB303 samples (notice the emphasis on Roland rhythm machines anyone ?). But what does it sound like, I hear you say ? Well.pretty good actually. With the right kit and some judicious use of the Low Boost control the Dr.Groove can really kick you in the guts. On the whole the sound is more 'budget' than 'pro' and some samples lack a little presence and 'oomph'. But let me quickly say that I don't think it really matters a jot that these samples don't sound like they're being produced by a top of the range 16 bit sampler, especially in this price range.
Dance music is rarely about quality and more about feel and emotion and the arsenal of sound shaping tools, patterns, styles and overall grooviness of the DR202 compensate for any minor failings in the sound of the raw samples. GROOVES ON A PLATE If you've had any dealings with constructing rhythms using a software sequencer then you've probably come across groove templates before. Here they do the same thing, essentially quantizing the timing and accents of a pattern to a preset rhythmic template. This is done without actually changing the content of the pattern just the rhythmic feel of it and the pattern can returned to its original state at any time. In the Dr.Groove templates can only be used on User patterns or Preset patterns copied to a User location and are applied using the dedicated Groove button. Depending on the complexity of the rhythm the process can be a little slow as the groove template is applied to all three tracks in a pattern. Also, the DR202 insists on applying a groove template each time you select a new one from the list, no fast scrolling to the end or middle of the list, you have to step through each template and wait for it to be processed before you can move on to the next. But these foibles aside, groove templates are an invaluable tool for breathing new life into plodding or uninspired rhythms and although the 20 templates here are uneditable there are enough to accommodate most dance styles. FLAM ROLLS The Dr.Groove roll function is a little special, and unusual. It offers 68 pre-programmed drum roll patterns including regular fill-ins and flams but also complete rhythmic phrases and dynamically filtered rolls. The Roll button can also be latched to allow individual percussion sounds to keep repeating ad infinitum while you play other non-rolling pads. MIDI The Dr.Groove has a full, if slightly frustrating MIDI implementation.
chrishuzzard.com/userfiles/files/canon-dr-3080c-manual.pdf
SysEx loading and dumping of all the internal kits, patterns and set-ups is catered for, as is setting MIDI channels for bass, drums and external MIDI in and out. It also responds and transmits MIDI Volume, Pan and control change for each track, Program change for selecting Kits, Portamento data for the Bass, all the VCF real time controllers, effects levels and internal or external MIDI sequencer control of Start, Stop, Continue. The Bass and external sequencer tracks will also respond to MIDI Modulation and Pitchbend, great for expressive bass lines, however the sequencer tracks will not record either Modulation or Pitchbend, a disappointment. The instruction manual doesn't give any specification for sequencer memory other than the maximum number of measures per pattern, 8 and maximum number of patterns per song, 999. I tried recording a busy 8 bar rhythm pattern containing drums, bass and some MIDI sequences and chords, I then copied 100 patterns into a song and copied the song 19 times and the available memory still read 60, so no problems there. Roland see this as the ideal combination and supply details of how to link the two Doctors together and run the built-in (and syncable) demo's in tandem, to great effect I might add. With so many instantly accessible and usable bass and drum patterns and styles available at the touch of a few buttons even pro's wanting to bang out top notch dance rhythms quickly and easily while those creative juices are flowing need look no further than the Boss Dr.Groove. Bottom line.highly recommended for ANYONE producing dance music. BOXES SUMMARY: So chock full of groovy goodies it hurts. 256 drum and bass samples, 3 track pattern sequencer, external MIDI control, realtime control of multiple VCFs, digital effects, groove templates and literally hundreds of authentic dance patterns and kits.
Exceptional value for money and little to complain about, this box of tricks sounds as good as it looks and has 'success' written all over it. PROS: Affordable and easy to use. Hundreds of great dance patterns and styles. Plenty of dedicated buttons and realtime control knobs. Some unique features. Portable (and with a decent battery life). Very very groovy. CONS: Pads not velocity sensitive or backlit. Realtime effects control not recordable. Who these authentic programmers are Roland don't, or won't say but they sound pretty bloody good nevertheless.

The plastic case is charcoal-gray.The plastic case is matte silver.The MkII version had access to 91 16-bit drum sounds, allowing the user to control parameters of each sample such as decay length and filtering. It had 64 preset patterns and room for 64 user-created patterns.

Before this I only had real experience with the DR-660, which costs about the same new, and I think the DR-202 is the equal of the 660 in most of the areas I would care about. The 808 and 909 kits are more complete, and the other analogue and older-type sounds (606, CR-78, etc.) are useful as well. But in exchange, you get more useful sounds (for my purposes at least), nifty realtime resonant filters and effects knobs, and of course the bass synth. The preset patterns all sound like shoe commercials to me, but I'm just getting started making my own stuff. I haven't played with an MC-303, but from what I hear I'd much rather have this one, as the MIDI implementation (a common gripe about the MC-303) seems surprisingly extensive. This is apparently meant as a companion to the SP-202, and it looks similar as well (somewhat 808-like). The sequencer is 3-track (drum, bass, external), and all the knobs actually send realtime data over MIDI, making them much more useful. The buttons do feel a tad cheap, and the display is not backlit, but man those knobs are fun.

To start viewing messages,Now I would like to but I'm not really sure how to go about it as I only understand a little about midi. But do the 202's already installed sounds also work when you plug it in via midi cables. I have an m-audio uno and don't seem to be getting anywhere when I set it up in cubase sx and select channel 10. Do I need another device to create those drums sounds such as a synth or something. If I do, what would you suggest. This probably sounds like a stupid question, but it is genuine and I really would appreciate some help as I've searched and can't really find the answer I need in a simple explanation. Could it be I'm not setting it up right even? Thank you.You need to know where your drum machines voices (sounds) are mapped (situated in cubase). If you can't be arsed reading the manual to tell you where the voices are mapped, try connecting your drum machine via midi (that's your pc's midi in to your drum machines midi out) set your drum machines midi channel (this is usually found in a utility menu) to channel 10. Now press the pads on your drum machine and you should (provided you are in the piano role edit screen) see on the keyboard on the screen(indicated by the note changing colour) where the sounds on your drum machine are mapped too.
Once you have made a note of this, swap the midi cable from the pc's and drum machine to pc's midi out and drum machines midi in, program a rhythm and trigger your drum machine (you'll need to monitor your drum machine either with headphones or through a mixer).

Or no accent, since I can count.

I need to master the machine first before I start getting into arranging crazy kits. Haven't had as much time as I'd like lately to work on music. Summer is here.

I have a thing for cheap drum machines with ghetto appeal. I also remember being a teenager when these things came out and my friend picked one up - hours of fun with just a DR-202 and it's sister the SP-202.It's a neat little machine, I had no idea it could do all the different bass sounds in addition to drums. I would say I actually like the bass samples a little more than some of the drum parts. The tiny LCD is a bit of a bummer and kit editing can be a pain but I'll have to give a go at the Kit Hacker software, see if that changes anything for me.It's actually. it's not easy to work with, but if you force yourself to do it you can. Two note tracks and a number of percussion lines. It's good enough for techno, anyways.Anyway, cool to see that this little thing has its fans. I also remember being a teenager when these things came out and my friend picked one up - hours of fun with just a DR-202 and it's sister the SP-202. Even though it's loaded with some cheesy samples, the majority are timeless classics for electronic and hip-hop. The 808 sounds are actually just as cool as the Goldbaby samples I have but in a totally different way. I'm really excited to experiment more with it. I have a feeling it's going to be real close friends with the Sherman FB2. I too was a teen when this line was released. Actually I used to have an SP-202 I paired with an XP-50 at the time (regret selling the SP now). My buddy had a DR-202 but only used it for the presets, which is why I never looked into it more. I thought it was basically a preset machine with some real time digital modifiers. I only did some research after I saw the one listed on Craigslist. It's exactly what I was after: Programmable, completely functional, battery powered, full of character, and cheap as hell. I've been thinking about buying another one as a backup. Anyone replace the CR2032 CMOS backup inside. I should probably do that but I'm afraid I'll break a trace or something just taking it apart.
