Madlibs Sparkdala Emu Systems SP 1200 Sampling Drum Machine

via this auction
"This is a true legend. Not just a drum machine but the first workstation, and still the best.

This is a sampling drum machine used on countless hit records mainly in the hip hop fraternity but also a cornerstone in house music. This particular one produced Madlibs Sparkdala and was manufacured March 1998 a specialist re-issue
from Emu systems number 55 of 125 made and is 100% faithful to 1987 original down to every last component. Serial No: 039805032

Has a floppy drive for storing and recalling samples and songs, also transfers samples over midi. Phat is the word here, SSM filter on outputs for warmth. Velocity sensitive pads, Midi Sync, SMPTE etc.. No dodgy buttons or scratchy pots. 8 Multi outs with SSM filtering. Detune samples on the fly

Cant really describe how rock solid its sequencer is or how slamming it makes beats but check out Diesel power by prodigy any Todd Terry track or Jays Z's dead presidents, you will see what its all about. Fantastic sequencer, and a breeze to use. Loads of info on the net about this awesome machine. This one has been serviced and had new pads from bruce forat in the States. Dont want to part with this and i will regret it, but space is a premium.

This is not a ten a penny peice but a slab of rare music history and an investment aswell as being an absolutely beautiful instrument."

Five real new-old-stock VACUUM TUBES. the basic preamp stage of our TM-7 Scrotum Smasher, driving: - the waveshaping (pulser) and ring modulation functions of our TM-1, minus the ring-modulator carrier oscillator, which then drives; a VCO derived from our TM-3 (it is NOT intended for use as a synthesizer pitch source, only as a special effect for signal degradation), leading to; an all-new wide-sweeping bandpass filter, with envelope filter function plus wah capability (external pedal); plus an envelope follower, which also makes a gate signal; and a noise gate on the output, which is always active and is driven by said gate signal.

Plus relay-based true bypass for the main circuit, plus relay controlled activation of the VCO and pulser. Controllable with manual switches or external Fender-type amp footswitches. Plus plenty of processing inputs and outputs for control voltages. No MIDI.
