I own the ER-1. It?s mostly usefull for electro/minimal kind of stuff. It?s no good for trance and techno. For trance/techno I would prefer EM-1. I have one of those in my kit too. It sounds more professional and has loads of features the ER hasn?t. With some practice you can get really nice drums out of it. And it?s usefull for a lot of things and styles. For example drum & bass and industrial. Really wicked machine. It?s underrated I think. But without any other equipment I would go software style if I were you.
