Yamaha MR-10 Analog Drum Machine

"MR-10 in action. It is a cool little machine. It is kinda similar sounding to the Roland TR-606 and the Korg KPR-77, but it is not programmable so it has gone pretty unnoticed. It is also somewhat like the early rhythm machines, the CR-68 and 78, TR-66, The Minipops, KR-55, except that it has pads for manually playing it! This makes me think it would make a prime candidate for a mod, adding triggers at it's pads. Probably an easy mod, but I never got around to doing it. I actually think it sounds a bit better than the KPR-77. I have the boss DR-110 as well, which is in the same class as these machines, just missing the toms. Anywho, the MR-10 is nifty sounding and analog. A few neat controls. Small, simple, and pretty cool."
