"The CR-8000 is a very nice analog machine from the classic era, it shares some of it sound with the legendary TR-808 and can also be programmed. In addition it has a nice selection of patterns that can be combined and modified by adding and removing different instruments with the top row buttons.

Overall its a very useful studio tool once synced via its Dinsync input. Alternately it can be the center of your setup if used the classic way with its Dinsync and triggers outputs.

I've just installed a set of fresh Duracells for the pattern memory, these should be changed every year or so to retain patterns.

If you were looking for a CR-8000, this is probably the one to get as it's unusually good shape and was recently looked over to make sure it works for years to come!.."
