I am selling my Roland CompoRhythm CR-78 drum machine.

It's a classic analog rhythm machine and was the first one with a microprocessor.

The CR-78 has 34 presets Rhythm patterns that can be varied at  the push of a button.These patterns include rock, disco, waltz, shuffle, Slow Rock, Swing, Foxtrot, Tango, etc.

The CR-78 offers 14 electronic analog drum sounds. Sounds include kick, snare, rim, cow bell, hi-hats, cymbals, Congas, bongos, tambourines and guiros

Furthermore there are 11 variation effects and the ability to  change tempo,set accents and fades in/out

The special thing about this CR-78 monster machine are the many additional functions  through a special extension:

1. Midi Module Mode (Midi Notes)
2. Midi Clock
3. Memory expansion from 4 programs to 15 self-created programs
4. Programming is done using the existing CR-78 buttons.
 There is no (WS-1) switch necessary
5. Permanent storage of the 15 programs possible without a battery or rechargeable battery.

The CR-78 machine is in excellent condition and is working   100%. All buttons and controls work perfectly Please look at the photos - they are part of the description.

It comes with the original Roland footswitch, the manual (paper copy) and the instructions for Midi operation and programming.

It is a 230 Volt unit. If you need 120 Volts I will add a step down transformator – just let me know.

If you have any questions, please email. Thanks for your interest.
