"Groovy four channel stereo output mixer with onboard Roland spring reverb: outstanding in its own right, or part of your journey to completing your very own System 100."
"The fabulous and uncommon Roland sequencer from the fabled System 100: outstanding in its own right, or an essential part of your journey to building a full System 100 rig to rival the Death Star. Excellent and full-featured – this is perfect if you seek old school analogue sequence action to spice up your synthlife."
"With these two units you get possibly the best synth Roland ever made, without paying silly money for extras you might not need, or have space for. Or it’s the beginning of you building your own complete system. Either way, this is the synth we all seem to be loving the most at Soundgas (and Soulwax say it’s their favourite, and they have ALL the synths). There’s that wondrous filter, and the flexibility of the semi-modular design. And it’s darn handsome into the bargain, which always helps."
"Just serviced, all pots, switches & contacts cleaned, boards callibrated. Overall external good shape, with some imperfections in panel and tolex as seen in the pics. Almost half a CS-80 at a quarter of the current price of that one. Why are we selling it?, because we also have a CS-80 ;-)"
