"very short video to demo the trigger input mod added to the Boss DR-110.
It enables the drum machine to be played with external gear. Any positive pulse trigger from 1v to 20v would do the trick, you can even trig the sounds manually with a AA battery if you like !"
via this eBay listing
"Portable programmable analog drum machine from the early 80s.
Unit was modded to add trigger inputs so that now you can sequence the 6 sounds and accent with external gear.
It uses optocouplers so any positive voltage pulse would trigger the sounds (v-trigger for instance). You could even trig the sound manually with a battery cell !
Unit is in fully working order. it comes with its original carrying case.
It runs on batteries or power adpater (not included). If you want to run it on power supply you'd need to get the boss PSA-120 power supply, other power adapters brings background noises.'

"BOSS DR-55 Dr. Rhythm is a classic drum machine released in 1979, known for its simplicity and distinctive analog drum sounds. It features four drum sounds (bass drum, snare drum, hi-hat, and rimshot) and allows users to program their own rhythms.
It comes with original box and BOSS stickers, manuals. The battery box is cracked and is held together with transparent tape, but this is not visually noticeable and poses no problem at all for battery use (please see the pics)"

PlantsSystem-Taxi (Full Version)
video upload by plantssystem
"The warmth of analog and the sharp texture of digital intersect in 'Taxi,' a song that depicts a minimalist world woven together by the rich synth textures of the Prophet-5, the tight rhythms of the DR-55, and the unique groove of the SU700. EffecTV is used for the video, visually emphasizing the experimental nature of the song. The simple yet deep soundscape evokes the feeling of wandering through an inorganic city night.

Crossover Beat w/ Rhodes Mark 2, Prophet-10, OP-1 field, Drums & Bass | Ordeal 2025-03-30 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A piece created using the Rhodes Mark II, Prophet-10, and @teenageengineering OP-1 field. The Rhodes harmonies repeat in sync with the drums and bass, while the melody goes wild through the MOOD MK II.
On the Rhodes Mark II, I perform with a @BOSSinfoglobal CE-5 chorus effect.
I play the intro and interlude on the @SequentialLLC Prophet-10, adjusting the filter during the interlude.
The drums are recorded and reconstructed in a DAW.
The bass is recorded into the DAW through a SANS AMP BASS DRIVER.
On the OP-1 field, I play the melody while manipulating the @ChaseBlissAudio MOOD MK II CLOCK for pitch shifting. Midway, I adjust the REVERB TIME to create a noisier sound."

Boss SDE-3 delay fully cranked on synth and drum machine
video upload by Richard DeHove
"Yet another delay pedal bought in hope of finding the perfect balance between size, sound and features. I'm still feeling good about this one: It's black, it's small, it has enough features to make it interesting, it takes line level easily, and it can bite hard.
So here's more audio noddlings than anyone might reasonably want. There's a short bit of blather at the start and then it's all audio with the DB-01 and LXR-02. The levels get maxed out a few times but I've kepy everything as is rather than using a limiter. Panning mode begins at 13:10 and continues for the rest of the video. In the drum machine examples the SDE-3 takes the right output and gives it a stereo output. The left side is centred in the mixer as a "dry" out. At times various drum sounds are panned left and right to varying degrees which means there's usually not an entire output going through the delay.
0:00 Blah blah about features
2:35 No more talk, basic sounds
3:30 Deep modulation, stereo
5:00 Heavy feedback, stereo
10:20 Offset knob, stereo
12:15 Wet-dry output
13:10 Panning mode
15:16 Terminator
17:26 Drone fun
20:48 Drums 1
21:59 Drums 2
22:58 Drums 3
23:28 Drums 4
24:35 Drums 5

"Wait what? Did you TLDR? No worries- here is a mix. Get ready to turn it up and shake it to the latest creation from this throwback Microcomputer. Once again the BOSS DS-1 shares the limelight by adding a subsonic crunch to the S2 MIDI Drums, mixed with a matched low sine and you have this awesome groove. NO Ai used in the creation of this film, some computers WERE harmed lol. Crank it, shake it, enjoy."

Alienized circuits AL-110 mk2 - modded Boss DR-110
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this listing
"Great modded rhythm machine that gets some great sounds and beats that you can’t get from a regular Boss DR-110. Plugged it in to my guitar amp and phono jack and worked nicely. The only thing I can tell is a bit wonky is the power switch. There has been a few times I turned it on and it glitches but goes back when I turn it off and on again."

DB-01 sonic noodlings with Midicake Arp spice (no talk)
video upload by Richard DeHove
"The Midicake 'spice' here is using its new MIDI CC parameter controls to modulate parameters on the Strymon Timeline in real time. The delay parameters getting the four-channel CC treatment are mix, repeats, highpass and smear.
It's a just shame that all the Timeline delay parameters aren't available under each 'engine'. So, for example, the bit rate and sample rate parameters are only available on the lofi engine. Delays that could do this much better would be the Source Audio Nemesis or the Free the Tone Future factory - both of which I sold. Somewhat ironic since the reason I sold both of them were that their best parameters were too hard to access. Either would be brilliant with the MIDI CC power of Arp.
So if you have any gear which hides its best stuff in tortured menus or multi-button secondary layers then the Midicake Arp may be the answer. Suddenly anything with MIDI CC control is instantly available for clocked modulation. It's beautiful.
Not to forget the DB-01. Two years in and the machine still fascinates. Here I start with the unloved parameter combo of the triangle wave and bandpass filter. Together they can be rather anaemic lacking both harmonics and bottom end. Yet with a little drive or sub and careful filtering they can still put in a respectable showing. usually I like a clocked LFO, or at least some note-reset phase LFO, but here it's all unclocked audio-rate goodness. I don't vary the LFO rate because it's roughly "tuned" to fit the full application of FM.
And if you can withstand a full 3+ minutes of solo DB-01 then you have definitely levelled up in the DB-01 club :D
