Vintage Electro Harmonix Super Replay Sampler Pedal

via this auction

"Vintage Electro Harmonix Super Replay Sampler Pedal with Instant Replay Drum Pad

It was owned by Sigma Sound Studios. Their inventory tags are still on both pieces. Randy Cantor, a mega-studio musician (google him), sold us this piece and related that it was used on lots of Sigma disco records in the '80s.

A major collectors piece.

In testing. I sampled a guitar signal, and was able to change the pitch and input sensitivity. It makes a steady popping noise like a metronome, and the output seemed distorted. Hopefully it will be a simple fix. It appears that the drum pad works, but the rubber pad is missing from the top. Both pieces have the usual scratches and dings and the super replay is missing two screws on the bottom."
