"808 is an inspirational story of the Roland TR808 drum machine and how its ground-shaking beats changed the musical world.

Its sound transcends countries and musical genres, in turn inspiring countless artists and producers, giving them an iconic sound from which to build upon.

Even if you don't know the 808 by name, you know its sound. It's everywhere, even now. 808 reveals the stories of the world famous artists, producers and most importantly the hit music to which the 808 was key, offering a cross section of personal experiences about the development of musical genres from around the world.

"This Microcon is the all analog version no MIDI interface. The Microcon is in great working order. Cosmetically it is in great condition. The Cyclodon is a 16 step analog sequencer. This sequencer is in perfect working order and in great cosmetic shape. Paired together, the Microcon and Cyclodon are capable of classic Roland TB-303 sounds and a lot more. The switches on the Cyclodon allow any step combination from 1 to 16, and the progamming is all done in real time with the knobs."
