"If you want to see Op-1 live and for real it is now shown at the Architectural Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. The unit shown is one of the first five pre-production units. The exhibition called Design for life is open for 2 months."

I tried to demo all the individual voice mods here but ended up forgetting snare decay, rim tune via cymbal oscillators 5 & 6, and system noise. Full details on the modification at http://gumielectronic.net/cr8000/inde..."
Roland CR8000 Voice Mod Demo Part 2 of 2
"This is part two featuring the hi hat, cymbal, clave, conga, and tom mods. Again I forgot to twist a couple of knobs: hi hat and cymbal high pass filters (they're not that great), clave boost (I used the trigger pulsewidth knob instead), high conga tune (behaves the same as the low & mid congas, just pitched higher), and tom noise."
Roland CR8000 With Elby MIDI2SDS(X) Installed
" Testing the Elby MIDI to trigger modules after installing them into the CR8000 case."
Roland CR8000 & Elby MIDI2SDS(X) Test
"This was early in the Roland CR8000 modification process when I was testing the Elby MIDI2SDS(X) MIDI to trigger modules. The CR is being sequenced by a 1 bar MIDI loop in Live. I also tweaked the 'noise' and 'offset' VRs on the voice board a bit. Definitely needs more cowbell."
Roland CR8000 Modification Timelapse
"Several days of work on the CR8000 in a cold shop. My pipes froze that week. But with the price of micro-miniature SPST switches these days, who can afford to heat the house?"
YouTube via snipz "Version with better sound quality! Soundmaster SR88 drum machine to clocking the A155/A154 combo and also two rows of a Z8000 sequencer (using a A160 divider for one of the rows). Sounds from a Hertz Donut going through a Polivoks filter and Z5000, AS95 sine through the Borg in LPG mode and a AFG animated pulse through a A101-1 filter."
YouTube via NovationTV "Launch clips with Launchpad and let ZeRO take control of the mixer and all Live's devices, there are even 8 trigger pads on the ZeRO to sketch out drum beats. But the best thing about the Zero is that you will never lose track of what you're controlling."
