"There is a reason you never see the CMU-810 for sale. It might look basic but it really is a tone monster. It sounds huge and greasy! Many people consider it the best Roland mono. These can be played by themselves and can also be integrated with your vintage Macintosh or PC computers."

micronaut - experiment two

YouTube via Cranda11 | January 28, 2011
follow-up to part 1 here
"http://micronaut.bandcamp.com

The second workflow exploration/live improvisation with this set-up. As with the previous video, the Apple //e with Roland CMU-800R is in the driver's seat. It is providing the drums with its internal sounds, and is controlling the modular synth, the Korg MS-20, and the Yamaha CS-5 (out of frame underneath the MS-20) via CV/Gate.

The main melody line that comes in after a bit is coming from a Reflex MeeBlip, which you can just see sitting on the desk. I'm controlling it with a Snyderphonics Manta controller.

Effects used: Roland RE-201 Space Echo, Eventide TimeFactor delay, Realistic Electronic Reverb delay, Audio Damage Eos reverb, Lexicon 300 reverb."

Roland CMU-800R Compu Music - Classic 80s Synth Module, Boxed, Mint

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Early 1980s Roland computer music module including sounds from classic Roland synths (TB303) and drum machines (TR606). It was designed for use with an Apple II or IBM PC but can now interface with MIDI using an add-on from beatnic.jp (not supplied). With this add-on you could use the 8 CV/Gate outputs as an interface to classic pre-MIDI analogue synths and drum machines. Or just admire the classic 1980s styling and sounds."

No mention if it comes with the software.

"Please do your research on this item prior to offering bidding or buying once this is been opened it is not returnable. The listing as a whole is returnable if it is not opened. This is an original sealed Roland brand Compu music synthesizer. Comes as pictured it is brand new in a sealed baggy which is never been opened and I've tried to picture that so that you understand that there are no fingerprints on this it is completely brand new also comes with the original box as pictured and comes with the operation manual which is printed and in a little blue binder as pictured...

The very last picture is the connection required to an old Apple 2 or early Windows computer that is the computer connection that this item has so don't buy this and be disappointed there's other connections on it but that is the computer connection and I don't know how you'll have to connect it unless you have an old vintage computer"
