"Rare and vintage drum machine AK Electronic Drummer Model CRM-260 with the original box and a brand new compatible power supply!


DESCRIPTION: The AK Electronic Drummer Model CRM-260 is a small but solid build Rhythm Box from the 1980's. The machine was made In Korea and was selled through AK (a german electronic shop, like RadioShack) and also sold as Conrad Drummer Model CRM-260.

The Unit offers 8 mixable presets rhythms: Trot, Waltz, Rock, Slow Rock, Disco, Cha Cha, Bossanova and Rumba. The CRM-260 has two knobs for VOLUME (red) and TEMPO (blue). Two buttons on the front are for POWER and START. A red LED above the start button shows the first measure of the selected rhythm. On the back there are two standard jacks for PEDAL/FOOT-SWITCH (pedal not included!) and OUTPUT and the DC-9V Adaptor jack.

Curious: when none of the rhythm is selected, the CRM-260 still plays a very simple rhythm. It's also possible ''mixing'' the rhythms by pressing two or more buttons simultaneous."

"A short demo of the AK Drummer transistor drummachine.
Even though it was sold as a kind of toy in the 80ies (?) it has very interesting innards: the actual sound circuitry is obviously kind of a 70ies transistor species. i did not trace it down or re-engineer it, however, i bet these are kind of simplified ace tone or roland wiedergangers.

So just imagine this would be housed in a tolex box (double the size) with an ace tone, roland or korg logo on it. you would be fine..."

This is the first AK Drummer post.

Update via Michael in the comments: "according to this link it was sold under different names; 'AK', 'Super Sound' and 'Cort'"
