Yeah resampling isnt really a live thing. Not that you couldn't do it, its just a lot of button presses and being fluid with that would be tough.
But for what it sounds like you wanna do I would go for it. Mangling shit with the effects is super fun.

My Korg Volca Beats, Bass and Monotribe are somewhere in my mess of a room.
However, here is a shitty photo of MicroKorg XL+, Minibrute, and Roland MC-505

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Goddamn it lost a lead on a cheap Tempest. I really fucking want a drum machine with pads for fingering drumming. Analog Rytm looks tasty, I'm just not sure. I really need dem drums.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Man, I feel ya, I could have scooped a Tempest for CHEAP recently. I have had one before, it is really more of a percussion synth than a straight-up drum machine. It takes skills to be able to make the sounds you want on a Tempest especially because the built in samples mostly suck.
I had an Analog Rytm until 2 weeks ago. I plan on getting another but am going to wait until I can find a used one for cheap. It feels kind of overpriced. The sequencer is awesome, the drums nail 80s analog drum machine sounds the sample playback is kind of limited but if you really get your sample how you want before putting it in the AR then it is handy. The AR really has a beta feel to it still, like it isn't totally developed and has a few quirks still. All and all, it is a nice piece of gear though.
Really, there are some awesome cheap drum machines too. But if you want an Elektron, maybe look for a used MachineDrum.
edit: Hmm for finger drumming, the Tempest probably the best standalone unless you go for an MPC.

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Yeah the thing that sucks is that for the most part it's either doing sample based drum machines which isn't really what I want. I've realized that the rytm would have a beta feel to just because I feel like that's just how elektron works. A cool product but not an entirely complete one until maybe a year or two after release. That's why I was also trying to find a used one but goddamn is it proving hard to jump around different forums in hopes of finding one. I also dig that I can cut out my sampler from the equation which was going to be a sp404sx which you gotta have everything sampled just the way you want it anyway to work with it well.
I wonder is it the super cheap tempest that was sitting in the gear page for like 850? That was mad cheap and I felt bitter that I didn't jump on it. I waited because I honestly don't have my drum synthesis skills up to par, but the set up of it and look is just so dreamy. What made you drop it?
I was looking around and possibly getting a cheaper drum machine with analog drum stuff that could possibly connect to a midi pad to trigger the drums and still have some xox. Do you think you can do that with a machine drum? I would have to look around because I feel like I'm wanting too much.
sorry for the relatively long musing about my search, just seems so daunting finally moving up to something nicer.

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Yeah the Gearpage Tempest, dude was asking $1000 originally, I was kind of back and forth with him, he was willing to take payments, etc. He messaged me that he would take $850, I didn't see the message until someone else scooped it…. I was like FFFFUUUUUCCCCKKKKKK NNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Dude look at this:

I had instant regret about selling my AR after seeing this….Damn it, so good.
I think the Machinedrum would work with a Midi controller.

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Oh shit that is sooooo sick. I think I might just get an AR sometime soon and with the extra cash I would save from getting a tempest, I'll get an Ipad. I think this would be a lot more fun than the machine drum with a pad. Sad that I didn't find you selling it before, I probably would've scooped it up as I'm in desperate need of a drum machine at the moment.
Dude I knew everyone was going to be looking at that, I wanted it bad but at the moment I was on a trip in NYC and I just didn't know if I could swing it. Regretting it, but not knowing too much about drum synthesis made me feel better about not purchasing it. Although it would've been a damn good flip, hell even on the ebay there would've been major profit.

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Yeah..Crazy about how cheap that was, I had the same thoughts about flipping.
Also, about our comment in regards to samples. Samples can be cool if you are rolling your own. So that requires either really good/interesting sound sources or a sampler that can manipulate very well. I was wishing that the sampling was was more robust with the Analog Rytm but that Strom does the trick…I already have an iPad. I wish I would have had a clue. But anyways, I know Elektron generally try to keep some functionality separate within their machines in order to not cannibalize sales and I have had an Octatrack in the past, so I was kind of wishing for some Octatrack features but to not be as complicated to use. So this Strom app seems to have done all of that. The only thing missing is a midi sequencer...

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Well then, I generally sample stuff in real life with my small recorder, it's decent and it's gritty. I take longer samples so I can cut them down in a computer than just throw them in a computer. Sure it's not as interesting or cool as actually actively cutting and fucking with samples on the actual machine. I don't have a sampler and originally I was going to buy a sampler to use separately, but this strom app seems better than buying an octatrack or some other sampler to use. I really want an Ipad now, maybe I can find a used one on craigslist that can run the app.
I always sequence everything on my MMT-8 no matter how fancy my stuff gets around me, I just can't let go off the simplicity of just recording, quantizing, and doing mute/unmute.

Re: Let's see your KEYS/SYNTHS!
Although I wanted an analog rytm with an Ipad I couldn't pass up a Tempest for 1000 bucks. I went for it, I'll tell you my thoughts on it after I learn how to do drum synthesis like a baller. So probably in like 10 years.
any tips or tricks on it?
