"classic piece of music gear. Please note that this is a midi controller for controlling midi sound sources such as keyboards, sound modules, drum machines, etc. It was not designed to make sound of its own. Approx.

dimensions: 18 1/2"w, 19 1/2"h, 5"d. Weight is approx. 22lbs. There are stick marks on the rails that flank the pads, but aside from that, it is sound cosmetically.

Will ship to continental US only.

Product features:

A pad to midi controller, the Portakit has 6 drum mic inputs as well as 7 built in dynamic pads. Up to 50 
memories are on board, along with a pattern sequencer to memorize pad hits. The sequencer has a 
memory

capacity of up to 10,000 events w/ auto quantize, programmable tempos, and overdub. Up to 12
 sequences can be stored. Simmons is utilizing RForce sensing film technology to help eliminate 
crosstalk between pads,

and there are ten dynamic curves to suit the player’s style. Also included are inputs
