Title link takes you to samples pulled via this auction."The Alien-Devices modified Roland TR-505 is a MIDI drum synthesizer that is capable of producing thousands of new and unique synth drum sounds and percussion patterns. The mods can effect the drum sounds in subtle or drastic ways creating synth tones, digital filtering, distortion, bizarre beat warping, and strange electronic textures. These units are great sample sources as well as stable live instruments and are fully MIDI capable."
BTW, be sure to check out Alien-Devices for more.
Update: Looks like they have a Bent Alesis HR-16 up as well: link. samples.
Nifty idea. The shipping price for this item to Canada is $48.00 by USPS global mail - probably two or three times what it actually costs.
ReplyDeleteI really hate it when people charge too much for shipping on eBay. It adds to the "ripoff" feel of the site.
AH-ha! You may have finally solved the mystery of who bent the HR-16 I bought off ebay. I've since decorated it a bit, and think it's probably the worlds only dual G4 drum machine. ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/67623368@N00/65941125/ )
ReplyDeleteThanks as always for the site Matrix.
