50 seems to be Roland's sale price limit per plugin. 808, the 200 4 plugin bundle and now this.

So this or Drumazon? I really love ACB, but I love D16's stuff too.

Drumazon has a lot more flexibility with regard to being able to tune etc. Roland promised this in their manual but hasn’t fixed this since alpha/beta testing. The ACB 909 is great, don’t get me wrong, I’ve used it on numerous tracks, but you can’t really customize it like you can with the Drumazon.

Think of the ACB 909 as a Rev 1 909 and the Drumazon as a revision 2/3. You can emulate almost any 909 kick with the parameters and tune every instrument. They’re both authentic in their sound with respect to what model they’re emulating.

Thanks. I guess I have a TR-8S so I already have an ACB 909 anyway, and Drumazon looks like it has more functions and a better UI, so it seems like a winner.
