Yeah the tempest is defo not for Trance, or electro Brostep crappy "me too" . you will NOT get Vengeance, loopmasters, or Sample Magic type polished sounds.
It's not ROLAND type Techno either. it's analogue and sounds very unprocessed. though it's perfect for 80'ties music, minimal techno and more IDM type stuff.
it's a HUGE contrast with the TEEN highly processed clipped sound you hear on beatport nowadays. But if you're no longer into THAT sound then you can have loads of fun.
But people who are looking for "getting them beatz fixed" and think a box is the magic fix for not being able to program a modern beat ITB are out of their mind anyway. the NU sound is FULLY ITB stacked processed sample loops. THAT sound will not come out of a TEMPEST

I could be wrong, maybe I am just a Elektron fan boy! :)

I've bought an MBASE-11 next to it, just for the more 909'sh type kicks, again VERY different
Together, for me, it's heaven

analogue sound (not trance or techno, just a jam)
tempest + mbase-11 + moogs + P08 + JP-8080 (being va ofcourse)just download and listen at 320 rather than 128 sounds a lot different to ITB sound. (whether you like it or not, is your call ofcourse)

Complete newb question here but,
If I purchase a desktop synth and a drum machine, how do i connect everything together?
I own studio monitors and a virus, so can i plug the desktop synth and drum machine into the virus?(would the virus then be acting as a sound card for them?) If this is possible is there any con?
If the above is possible, what do I need to purchase once all the slots on the virus are full? is audio interface the correct term?

sounds like you are using reason stock refills. Not so analog in any way. It doesn't sound diferent, it sounds bad. It is not analog the second you've put it in the computer.
And saying it isn't for trance is non sense.People that think gear is restricted to genres are kinda stupid. Guess where all those sample cds people use come from ? drum machines like this. All of them. Well maybe indirectly but they all started off as some wimpy analog 909 with processing.

Yes, you will need an audio interface (soundcard) to record the audio, and you will also need a MIDI interface to connect and sync the drum machine to your computer (unless it sends/receives MIDI via USB). Many soundcards have a built-in MIDI in/out, or you can pick up something cheap, like the M-Audio Uno.

I love the roland mc-303 groovebox! My 1st studio synth / beatbox back in 1999! :)
