via this auction"Back in the day this was the bees knees. I was told when I purchased this that it was used in touring company lighting rigs, and that served for a big tourings bands triggering drums to lighting. He was quite proud of setting it up for a Phil Collins tour. If it made the lights go on and off during "In The Air Tonight", that's something I guess!
Designed to compliment cymbals and hats in the stage, also used in lighting rigs. This unit does not make these sounds unless you have a cartridge with these sounds on them! The concept was that hats and such took up less room to lug around on tour. You'd use trigger pads for Kick, Snare + Toms, and just mix up the other instruments in the desk.
They were the quickest triggering available in their day, and still hold there own against modern units. SOLID! The manual is HERE so you can see how useful and diverse the programming is, it's better than me rambling on. Sealed's Deep Synthesis has some sound samples and more info, and some mp3 sound samples.
Serial Is #01009. 240v version. No cartridges included. The power plug is on 6 foot cord. 8 Individual ins for your pads or switches (I've used both - very customizable sensitivity in kits enables mixing and matching of different sorts). 8 Individual Outs, as well as Mix Outs and a headphone socket on the front (with Volume control). Memory Up and Down and "Foot Switch" sockets around the back as well as the Midi In/Out/Thru we've all grown to know and loathe.You can make some really amazing sounds with this unit, especially when combined with actual drum triggers or playing with velocity sensitive pads of some kind. Sounds can bend in pitch up, or, more usefully down. Really perfect for Dropping the bass in Dubstep, Breakcore of Grime tracks. Also lets you "Loop" the waveform. The sounds are synthesized using an attack and sustain part of the wave, this will loop the sustain. Radical pitches and loops allow for all sorts of glitchy chaos to be generated."
