"Welp, doesnt get much more rare than this little guy. Cute as button too! well for synth! Its black and yellow and its has touch sensitive keys- what more do you want! Some seriously Dark side of the moon sounding stuff with little guy! Its instant Moog, Arp, Roland all rolled into one. Its really that awesome. Check out some videos on you tube for ref. Some of the hard plastic is broken off long ago. Its just plastic after all these weren't really thought of as made to last decades or anything. Legend has it Pink Floyd, The Who used to give these away as XMAS gifts.

JL Cooper Sound Chest II Digital Drum Module
Published on Apr 29, 2016 zibbybone
"Here's a quick demonstration of the rare JL Cooper Sound Chest II digital drum module. It comes with with its own EPROMs of standard drum kit sounds and is supposed to be able to use EPROMs from Linn, Oberheim and Simmons drum machines and modules. Sounds can be triggered either by MIDI or drum pads via trigger inputs. In this video, I'm using a Roland Fantom X6's rhythm programmer to trigger the SC2's sounds via MIDI. Front panel controls allow you to adjust volume, pitch, tuning via dynamics, filter via dynamics and decay."

"I am a drummer, who originally bought the Roland TB-303 from Guitar Center in San Francisco in the early 80's with the intent of using it as a metronome. Being a drummer and technically challenged (which hasn't really changed) I didn't really get the hang of it and just went back to practicing with a metronome. The TB-303 has remained in a box in the attic until recently, when I took it to Guitar Center to have all functions checked out. The machine works perfectly, with no lag in any of the keys (works as new).You can also see in picture, that batteries have never been used.. Case, original manual, new printed manual and power source included."

SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS PRO 8 POLY SYNTH SN 02033

"VINTAGE 1980's ANALOGUE POLYPHONIC SYNTH,
WITH 8 VOICES AND 8 OSCILLATORS, WHICH CAN BE PAIRED, SPLIT, OR EVEN UNISON-ED FOR AN 8 VOICE MEGA-BEEFY SOLO SYNTH SOUND, PLUS MIDI AND A NICE CHORUS EFFECT.
A rare beat this, in excellent condition with a copy of the Split 8 manual (which is the same this machine under the hood), but the Pro 8 has the far cooler classic Sequential styling! Manufactured in Japan for SCi maybe as a challenger to the Roland Juno 106, only relatively few of these made it to production before Dave Smith became wary that the wooden end cheeks and unmistakable font styling might be confused with the Pro One and Prophet 5, so it morphed into the Split 8, which shares the styling of the TOM drum machine! Anyway, lots of info available on line about it's controversial genesis story and rarity.
A lovely sounding poly and a nice rare alternative to the more common SCi, Korg and Roland poly's of the era, if you can find one! This was the only one I'd ever seen or sale in the UK when I bought it, but my gear armoury has crept up on me again and needs to be MAJORLY slimmed down, so I've opted to let some of my rarest vintage pieces go (check my other listings too, more to be added!). This is a Japanese 100v voltage unit (as they all are I believe) but has obviously been converted to UK voltage at some point in it's life, as it works great plugged straight in with just a UK adapter. Minor wear and tear but overall in timewarp condition, bright white keys, strong red lights and digital screen, a really beautiful and unusual vintage 1980's proper poly-synth."
