A month ago I was deciding between a Tempest, Tanzbar or the new Elektron mystery box. If the new AR has individual Outputs, then it is case closed at this point. If the AR only has stereo out, then I still have a decision to make.
I really want to hear more good samples of the AF. But for now, my Tanbar hooked up to a Mackie 1202 with a Boss SE70 on the effects send, and an MXR 136 dual limiter strapped across the master is sounding really good.
jamrod have you tried to chain patterns, its super easy and allows you to have as many bars as you want. I do think the tanzbar will be better at ad lib performance because of the knobs, but the AR will be better if you like to plan a bit more.

I'm a concertina player, and a friend of mine is a barrel-organ player, so we had both heard of the Tanzbr, which is a sort of cross between the two. However, we were of differing opinions as to how the Tanzbr is operated. As your video shows, you have to pump the bellows AND pull the lever!
