I do not own a machinedrum (yet) but am seriously considering buying one. I have decided not to go with the user wave and plus drive version just because the 12 bit sampling doesn’t really peak my interest. However, the plus drive is a huge upgrade. With the non user wave version, would I be able to transfer patterns/songs/kits to my computer via sysex or anything of that ilk as to save space on the machine? I am concerned with running out of internal memory considering it stores 128 patterns (still a lot, but I could honestly see myself using it up quite quickly).
yep, you can do exactly what you’re asking with any version of the MD
