"Diabolical Modified Roland TR-505 Drum Machine:

Here we have a Circuit Bent Roland TR-505 with custom case and paint mega modified by James Gramling of Class A Electronics aka Diabolical Devices. Like to 505 itself the mods are a stripped down version of the TR-707 mods we are "famous" for. Check out Diabolical Devices on the web.

TR-505 Modification:

(6) Pitch/CLK speed controls were added they affect each sound/group individually and cover all sounds except for Hi-Hat and Cymbals. These controls affect the pitch by Changing the clock speed of the sampled sounds playback, at lower speeds you get a really cool bit-reduction, think Linndrum or the spongy snare sound in early Prince stuff.

(6) 1/4" Individual Line Outputs with level controls. These outputs correspond to each of the pitch controls and cover all the same sounds/groups. When an output is used that sound is removed from the MAIN MIX (master output) which allows you to mix/or process some sounds independently.

10 point Circuit Bending ROM interface (Banana Jacks) This patch bay allows you access to a ton of unique effects by scrambling ROM data as the machiine is playing a sound back. Linking patc points with provided cables will generate a wide range of effects including distortions, filtered sounds, ring mods and more. The affect all sounds in most cases.

This item includes Patch cables, Power supply, original Roland instruction manual, and mod instruction. International shipping is $65 worldwide."
