"Rare 1989 16-bit drum machine with a unique 25 point ROM modulation patch bay and 16 preset effects switches. These custom modifications allow for the processing of the onboard sounds and user programmed rhythms to an extreme extent with the generation of an immense range of warped and inspiring sound design possibilities. These include distortion, bit crushing, aliasing, cross modulation, delays, digital noise, tonal sounds, reversing, flams and more indefinable effects. The five included patch cables can also be stacked for even deeper processing. The unit functions as normal when the patch bay is not implemented. Includes original manual and power supply.

2x 16 backlit LCD display.
43 tuneable and reversible sounds.
99 pattern, 100 song memory.
MIDI in, out.
1/4" outputs.
Tempo and volume controls."
