"Quick demo of this pretty rare Japanese drum machine."

"Demo of the Hillwood Super Variation, a Drum Machine fro around 1977-79. Made by a Japanese company who apparently was a supplier for Roland until they decided to start their own product line in the market. Not much info around. The cool feature of the Super Variation is the metal bar on top, that allows you to switch the machine on and off. Has also quite slow rhythm speed. Other than slight EQ-boosting on the low end frequencies, no processing. Best listened to on good headphones or decent stereo equipment. Filmed on Fuji-XE2 with 4/9cm Leitz Elmar lens."

"The SR-909 is an exact replica of the classic Roland TR-909. It comes as a complete kit with enclosure, bare boards and all electronics and rare components included. The boards are based exactly on the original schematics and the machine is running the original V4 firmware.

The build itself was quite a ride, but the guys from Steda Electronics were very helpful!"
