»The Monomachine and Machinedrum are easy to learn, phenomenally deep and rich in customizability, great for jamming, playing live and controlling other devices. Watch the videos and read the specs. If you have the money and interest, it's hard to imagine there being a better buy."

"In the few days I've had the Machinedrum, I'm already fast at work on some new compositions. If your interested in doing some serious synthetic percussion programming and sequencing, you can't go wrong with the Machinedrum."

Vintage Synth full review

»If you're tired of the sampling bazaar, get to know the Machinedrum. Frequent EM contributor Todd Souvignier once advised, 'Let machines speak with their own native tongues.' When the Machinedrum speaks, it's so joyfully synthetic that it verges on being alive.«

»The beauty of all the Elektron products is that the product grows with you as you become more familiar with its functionality. The functions are intuitive and extensive, and the hands-on feel of the unit lets you know you are in control.«

– iDJ

»The Machinedrum offers an unparalleled solution for sound production and sound mangling. The diversity of the sound results is one of the strengths of the instrument. For fans of house, techno, hip hop, EBM or industrial rock it is a great companion both in the studio and on the stage.«

– Beat Magazine

»To sum it up, the Machinedrum sounds stunning and though some might complain about the 12-bit only operation, I love the sound it produces […]. All the sounds are characterful, upfront sounding, punchy and very usable.«

– Future Music
