--> I had no idea that there was such as thing as these bizarre short-wave looking boxes. They sound quite cool too... $225 will get you one of these or 1 deluxe Bombay Baya which I'm sure would sound amazing

where do you hit it?

err, I don't know. I'm not sure how you do it actually. I guess you proabably hace to RTFM

They just play back preset rhythms I think. There was an article on them on musicthing once. The bling ones have MIDI features, too.

they have these here locally, they're fun, but so expesnive.

Overpriced but very cool little machines.

hmmm, i think these are just playing samples, not doing anything really you could bend or modify. Maybe?

maybe. I haven't seen one for real, just heard the examples. it makes out kind of like you can program it somehow

the riyaz master is where its at - link

here's the riyaz master:
"This Bombay made device is the current people's choice drum machine. The sound, especially the baya, is very good. It has 16 of the basic thekas, with speed and pitch control."

Looks something like that, set up like the drum accompaniments on Casio performance keyboards and the like.
Still, there are two buttons labelled "Compose 1" and "Compose 2" which suggests the owner might be able to write their own patterns (2 of them)?
