via this auction"Roland CR-78 Analog Drum Machine (actually they called it a Rhythm machine or CompuRhythm) Programmable!" If you're a songwriter, just hit a preset and it just "fits' what you're playing. It's not "rigid", like a lot of electronic drums. It's not an accident it was used on all those hits. PLUS this thing sounds incredible with real drums playing along. (Everyone knows the Phil Collins part on "in the Air Tonight" where the Cr-78 gives way to that great live drum fill-kinda makes them explode) You can program it, but incredibly A LOT of artists just used the presets!
Here's a link to an alternative (and much improved) to the ws-1 programmer, hard to find and not as versatile as the new CR78-PGM ( I think it's a czech company) Any CV converter with clock out could probably program it, but for serious stuff get the programmer, it could really make this machine fly."Links to videos at the auction while up.
