Roland mc 909 groove box worth keeping?

[Fuse]

Hello, I recently got into logic 9 and am wondering if there is any point keeping my roland mc 909 groovebox. (which hardly got used and I don't know how to use it.) Does logic do anything the 909 can do? I really want to concentrate on learning logic so I'm wondering if it's a waste of time even starting to learn the 909. I'm thinking I should just sell it since it's just going down in value. Wondering if anyone thinks I will regret it. My interests are producing hip hop and house.

Would love to hear from anyone with their opinions.

I think you should hang on it to since I made some of the factory preset sounds and styles

 

Other than that, and seriously, no - I don't think there's any reason to own a MC-909 when you've got Logic.

 

PS. I can't remember which ones I made, but it may say in the back of the manual or look for the initials HL.

I've been using Logic Pro 8 for a few years now (upgrade from Logic 7 Express) and I still like using my Roland MC-808. I like the presets in it, but more so I come from the old school of using drum machines and hardware synths....I like my knobs, buttons and LEDs.

 

I've written a few tracks on my 808 that will be specifically for an EP I hope to release next year.

Very cool that you helped with the 909.

Thanks for your input

id keep it... it's always cool to have some hardware stuff kicking about... i'm sure when you've got your head round logic you'll come back to it and use it for bit's and pieces.... unless your really strapped for cash or something i hang on to it.
