ROLAND CR-78 - HQ DEMO vintage drum machine 1978
YouTube via AnalogAudio1
"The Roland CR-78 came out 1978 and was the first programmable drumbox with a microprocessor. The sounds are analog. 4 own rhythms are programmable, the other are presets. The CR-78 allows to combine 2 rhythms. Also you can cancel BASSDRUM, SNARE, CYMBAL, COWBELL / CLAVES. A little mixer allows adding GUIRO, CYMBAL and METAL BEAT.
The CR-78 was used by Phil Collins (in the air tonight), Roxy Music (jealous guy), Visage (fade to grey), OKAY (education), and many others.
Int the second half of the film you see the CR-78 synchronized with a Sequential Circuits TOM."
BTW, if you have an iPhone check out FunkBox. Prior post including video here. You can find it on iTunes here.
