"The CR-68 is a classic analog Rhythm Machine related to the famous CR-78.
The CR-68 has the same sound set and rhythm patterns, but is not programmable and lacks many of the better features found on a CR-78.

However the CR-68 does have breaks & fills, an accent that really livens up its beats, and a balance knob that can be used to weird-out the sounds a little bit.

A much cheaper alternative to the CR-78 considering it is strictly limited to its preset patterns.

The CR-68 offers up the basic set of rhythms and sounds.
There's 4 Rock, 2 Disco, Waltz, Shuffle, Slow Rock, Swing, Fox Trot, Tango, etc...

The sounds are analog and include kick, snare, rim, hi-hat, cymbal, maracas, claves, cowbell and congas.

These days the CR-68's sounds are often sampled instead, after which the machine itself may be kept around for use as a paperweight or book-end.

To overcome this, we are currently installing an Analogue Solutions MIDI Kit, so you can control this via MIDI as well. Accent is also supported!"
