Cool but a little gimicky and cheap manufacturing

I am a long time lover of music and I love playing with electronic beat machines and sequencers. I bought this for my 2 year old so he could play with music and have some fun. He hasn't been that interested in the toy because he's a little too young to appreciate it, but I have had a lot of fun playing with it. Something with this many features would have cost about 800 bucks when I was a kid, so I consider it a great value.

The only complaint I have is that the IPOD connection doesn't seem to work right and the directions for downloading and installing new loops is very confusing and vague. I got music to play from my IPOD on the machine in real time, but the volume is very faint and distorted. There is no way the volume from my Ipod could get loud enough to make the toy work well with my IPOD, which was a disappointment. I don't know if I got a defective item or if other people who have used this feature know something I don't. Maybe my audio cord is messed up and thats causing the problem.

If I were a teenager and had been given this for a gift, I would have been in heaven. The value for the price is outstanding. I can't wait till my kid is old enough to appreciate what this thing can really do.

Great TOY!

This is a great MUSIC toy! My boys play on it for hours. They fight on who gets to play it, so we have to set a timer! It is so fun, and even adults get into it.
Wish they had a little more music selection, but still it is so fun.
My kids think they are DJ's makin music.
My kids are 5 and 8, and it is great for them.

Needs 128MB Video RAM

I've just been on the phone with Mattel. I'm told that the reason my Ucreate Music is now completely devoid of sounds and flashing an error light, is that I tried to download loops without having at least 128MB video RAM. This requirement, at this time, is on the box but not the physical instructions nor the PDF. All the content was erased as the site attempted to install new content which failed. I'm told that unless I get a new video card, my Ucreate Music will be nonfunctional. Mattel did make this right with me though. It won't fix my daughter's disappointment. The product was awesome during the hour we got to play with it.

Great Toy at a great price

I read a lot of reviews where people had problems with the download and I expected to be putting my husband to work on it. My seven year old son already had it all done by the time I even had a chance to look at it and everything was working fine. We have an older computer with Windows XP. My son has been showing me how everything works now. I would say it seems very user friendly to me and he is having a lot of fun with it.
