/tIf you mean by this that the machine doesn't sound like real drums, I totally agree, and its main purpose is much more like elctronic sounds.
If you mean non natural drumming or feeling, I don't agree, but in this example, yes, you're right

Actually you really can tweak the patterns to sound like humanized drumming, the sequencer offers many possibilities, and you can also play with LFO and enveloppes and parameter locks to altrer the pattern and make it more alive (timing, ghost notes, decays, ...).
What I haven't done in the previous exemple ; it was only meant to show a drumkit example.
