Vintage UNIVOX SR-55 Drum Machine

via this auction

"The SR-55 is a very rare rhythm machine made in 1972 by Keio Electronics of Japan as Korg Mini-Pops 3, marketed in the USA by UNIVOX (Shin-ei). It features 20 rhythms, volume knob, tone knob and two 6-part variation knobs for Fox Trot/Swing. Plays great vintage beats (especially Latin rhythms), great for blues, reggae and rock. SR-55 was used by Kraftwerk early on. You can create cool train effects, and the Western beat has a hilarious horsey clip-clop sound (a la Wall of Voodoo). Run it thru delay/chorus effects pedals for some killer sounds. Perfect for sampling, home studio, live performance, bellydancing, animal husbandry or retro gear collectors!"

Midi to Trigger Interface From Obsoletetechnology

"Low cost, low part count Midi to Trigger interface with 10 Outputs.

This Midi to Trigger interface generates a TTL (5V) trigger signal per note over a range of ten notes. It can be used for example as a midi interface for vintage drum-expanders or as a multiple-trigger generator for a modular synthesizer. I developed this module in order to modify my Tama TS305."
