Here are some functions and sounds of the Lowrey V-600 Micro Genie Pro. While the keyboard sounds are just OK, the crunchy, lo-fi drum samples make this keyboard a keeper. 

Drum programming can be a challenge because there is no click and it does not quantize. While this is annoying for someone like me with bad rhythmic sense, it allows a more capable person to program the rhythm they want. But, you can always delete the part you don't like by holding down the F key marked Delete. It will delete all hits while an percussion or instrument and delete keys are held simultaneously. Programmed drum, bass, accompaniment (rhythm), arpeggio, intro/break patterns are stored on the removable KE-100 module.

It can even automatically play any of the four variations of each rhythm style by pressing any combination of 1 to 4 (eg. 2 and 4 or 1, 3 and 4).
