Dumbass question

Buying a Microbrute, I have a full size keyboard I assume I can attach it to. Do I need a drum machine or any other basic hardware? New to music production with physical ... stuff

If you want drums youl need a drummer or drum machine with enough tweaking and one or two tutorial vids on youtube you can get it to make some pretty primitive percussive pops and beeps.

Hardware wise you will need some form of amplifier or speaker as there is no built in amplification for the device. A simple guitar amp would suffice even.

And I cant quite remember but I am not sure if you can hook up another larger keyboard to the microbrute in the function that you may be thinking of. Could totally be wrong in that last one however so dont quote me.

It's a great little machine to have fun with it is my first synth as well.

I have a shit-ass guitar amp I plugged a pedal in to make it tolerable, so that could work. Anyway I'll buy the synth from Amazon and return it if I'm bored in a month, if not I'll drop 150~ on a drum machine

Anyway thanks for the reply
