VINTAGE UNIVOX SR55 Analog KORG Mini Pops...for sale!

Magical Vintage UNIVOX SR-55 Drum Machine. This unit is in great working condition and sounds awesome. Cosmetically it is in good condition, the buttons are scratched up, and one replaced knob (the pot is original). I believe this to be one of the earliest models 1969 - early 70's. There are no markings with a model number and the serial number is left blank.

VINTAGE MPC Percussion Computer...for sale!

Early 1980's MPC flightcased drum machine, this i seriously cool looking drum machine, i will admit im not an expert on these things and have only been able to do a basic test with a set of headphones. All the pads are working and all of the decay, pitch, volume, tone, bend and mix knobs all seem to be working fine aswell, but ive not got a clue as to all of the keypad functions nor linking it to a computer, etc. All of the LED' light up and when you press keys on the keypad they change from one setting to another and also flash in time or in sequence. Basically, it looks as though it all works but just in case im selling AS-IS so's not to dissapoint anyone.

Its a heavy machine so th UK postage is £14.00 or you can collect if you wish, comes with mains lead, instructions and a C64 interface. The foam in the lid is a bit sticky as it is starting to age and perish.

VINTAGE KENT K110 Analog Rhythm Master...for sale!

Vintage 1960's KENT Rhythm Master Drum Machine. This unit is in working condition and sounds very nice. It has an extremely unique sound not offered by other machines of its kind. This is an extremely RARE analog drum machine! The famous Kent K-110 drum machine was released soon after the Korg Donca Matic. The K-100 series are said by some to be the first "real" drum machines. All rhythms are working, the pots can be a little scratchy, and there is a bit of noise, as to be expected from a machine this age. Could probably use a recap on the PSU, but perfectly useable as-is. Cosmetically it is in nice condition, there are a couple of nicks and dings. The back cover appears to be missing. Perfect for sampling, chopping up beats, add delay some reverb and things get real psyched-out. This is a great experimental minimalist piece.

FREE walnut and paper drum machine!

I’m sure the title has got you wondering … well, the d-touch drum machine is a free piece of software that lets you make DIY beats and drum patterns using a piece of paper, a webcam, and … walnuts.

Actually, it doesn’t have to be walnuts, just about anything will do – the drum loop is controlled by arranging objects on an piece of paper. The paper is arranged in 11 rows, and works like a traditional x0x-style programming grid: Each row corresponds to a different sound, and each column determines the timing of the drum sound trigger within the loop.

Best of all, it’s free.
You can download the application (link below), It’s free, although registration is required.

Now all we need is for them to created a virtual paper TB303 and we’ll be all set.

MOBY's vintage drum machines!

Dell’s Motherboard.tv visits Moby’s Manhattan apartment studio, where he talks about his “Noah’s arc” of rarified gadgets, bizarre synthesizers, and vintage drum machines.

If you didn’t hate Moby for having a better birthday than you, the multiple duplicate rare drum machines that line his studio walls may just push you over that edge.

Best line: “A rock band cannot rehearse in the suburbs at 3 o’clock in the morning. You can make electronic music at 3 o’clock in the morning, and your mom doesn’t complain. “

KORG ELECTRIBE ER1 mk2...for sale!

You are bidding on my KORG ER1 mk2, UK model, as new condition, hardly used, boxed with manual and genuine Korg power pack.

With a more powerful groove than ever before, this advanced rhythm machine arms you with an analog beat that’s all your own.

The intuitively designed Korg Electribe R mkII is packed with fat, innovative sounds produced by DSP synthesis technology, a classic interface for creating beats and tweaking them in realtime, and the ultimate array of up-to-date dance styles.

- An amazing rhythm machine with a cool new look!
- Many new patterns representing the latest dance styles
- Powerful Cross Modulation adds a new dimension to your sounds
- Audio Input function can be used to rhythmically gate two incoming signals for cool effects
- Step Sequencer for easy input of patterns
- “Motion Sequence” function records knob movements
- Low Boost and Delay effects
- Tap Tempo and MIDI Clock for synchronizing with an external sequencer, etc.

An awesome analog beat box
The Korg Electribe R mkII is a new generation of rhythm machine that is enhanced by spontaneous knob-based editing of analog drums and sound effects. After you create your ultimate sounds, you can use the Electribe R mkII’s internal step-sequencer to create original rhythms. Sound editing is simple; just turn the knobs to adjust the various elements of the sound. You can use the onboard sounds in conjunction with the external audio input to create unconventional rhythms that have never been heard before.

Cross Mod creates aggressive new sounds
A new cross modulation function (replacing the previous Ring Mod) can be applied to percussion synthesizers 1 and 2 to take your DSP drum sounds into bold new timbral areas. Use it in combination with the motion sequence function to create unimaginably extreme sounds.

Use external audio with your grooves
You can also run two external sounds into the Korg ER-1mkII. They can each be rhythmically gated in tempo with your music using the same simple step key interface. By using the knobs to modify the level, duration and panning of these external sounds, you can create truly unique and experimental rhythms.

Step record with ease
The Electribe R mkII’s step sequencer lets you use the 16 pad keys to make rhythms from the sounds you create. Since you can hear the results as well as see them while you step-record, you can instinctively create cool patterns.

Add motion to your mix
Knob movements you make to edit the sound – such as changing the volume of parts, or opening/closing the filter – can be recorded directly into the sequencer. You can use these to add timbral change to your phrases, panning and other motion-inducing fun. These Motion Sequences are saved in each pattern along with your sounds and phrases.

Amazing new sounds and patterns
The mkII also boasts a significantly expanded list of new preset patterns that cover every type of dance music from techno, house, trance, two-step, electro, R&B, hip-hop, drum'n'bass, big beat, IDM, trip-hop, and lounge. This broad selection provides you with powerful grooves for your performances and productions.

Take control
You can control the Korg Electribe R mkII from an external MIDI sequencer, keyboard, sampler, or other device to integrate it into your current production and performance setup.

ROLAND D2 Groovebox...for sale!

Roland D2 Groovebox

+ power supply

In good condition and full working order, though it doesnt include its manual though does come with a power supply

The manual can be downloaded here http://www.vintagesynth.com/roland/d2.php#

Although not as expensive at the MC505 it features many similar functions and capabilities Roland's D2 Groovebox is a compact, performance-oriented Groovebox (sequencer/sound module)--sort of a smaller MC-505--designed entirely around Roland's D-Field Controller technology. This touch-sensitive pad makes it easy to program and modify patterns, sounds, effects and more simply by touching the surface. It has all of the 505's sounds and a similar sequencer with 150 all-new patterns including the latest 2-Step and R&B styles.

The D-Field controller at the heart of the D2 (also featured on the V-Synth) offers three distinct modes: SOUND makes playing patterns and sound effects easy by touching the D-Field; XY provides simultaneous control over two parameters (e.g. filter cutoff + resonance); SPIN creates turntable-style effects by tracing the pad in a circular motion.

The D2 has more than enough sounds inside, with 600 Preset patches and 30 Preset drum kits from the MC-505. These dance-oriented sounds include ultra-fat bass and lead synths, screaming TB-303's, dance piano and strings, plus 30 floor-pounding drum kits. Phrase/Groove loops are also plentiful with 150 patterns plus 240 RPS (Realtime Phrase Sequence) patterns. There is a new Step Recording method using the D-Field and 32 LEDs as well. Separate Reverb, Delay and Multi-FX sections with Groove-oriented algorithms add space and effects to your sounds & grooves. And with the D2's Megamix function, it's easy to remix patterns into your own creations using the D-Field or Value dial.

The D2 is an awesome concept in terms of hands-on, real-time performance control. However the hidden menus and overall navigation can cause some headaches. If you want to edit your own sounds, you may want to connect a MIDI Controller to tweak all the sounds you want and save into one of the 256 users patches. The D2 is definitely designed for the electronica, dance and hip-hop musician on a budget. It is not as complete a Groovestation package as the MC-505 or MC-909, but its D-Field controller is very novel and fun to use. Because the D2 is fairly cheap, it does make a great toy to add to your arsenal if manipulating beats and grooves in real-time and at the touch of finger is what you're in to.
