Can you program drums on an SU700?

I've been hearing conflicting things about it, with some people saying you can sample and reprogram drums and others saying that it's only a loop player, and I want to find out for sure. If you can program drums on it, then does it have anything on there where you could sample a drum loop and seperate it into individual drum hits, or would you have to use preloaded disks? I'm considering getting one, but first I have to know these things, as I cannot stand the thought of not being able to program my own drum tracks on it. Thanks.

i'll help you.. yes you can sample individual drum hits and make your own pattern out of it or you can sample a drum loop.. you can't however divide a drum loop into parts.. you have to use Recycle or an a3k using the loop divide function..

hope this helps..

Well, is there anything similar that actually DOES have the capability of being able to chop up and program your own drums? With looping&effects in the same class as the SU-700?

See, I'm looking for something that I could use as a sample workstation, where I could sample a bunch of stuff, slice it up, filter the living hell out of it, reprogram, and form the entire mess into completely re-arranged loops. I plan on taking whatever I actually get and chopping&mangling samples to the point where I could get away with not clearing anything. It doesn't seem like anything fits what I want to do so far, as everything nowadays is either a severly crippled loop-player, or a glorified drum machine, or simply waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of my price range for even considering. It sucks because the SU isn't made for actual programming, the ASR-X requires external sequencing to make up for the asscrack sequencer onboard, the MPC is overpriced for what it's truly capable of, and all of the rackmounts these days are over-featured simply so the companies can justify charging like $2000 for a damn sampler. What would come even close to what it is I WANT?

Actually, forget it.

I have a computer anyway, so if an ASR-X were to act up then I could always sequence it that way.
