Roland TR-505 Drum machine for sale


Roland TR-505 drum machine for sale on eBay. I'd love to buy this myself but I currently don't have the funds to buy new gear at the moment so I said that I'd post a link up here on Voltage-Controlled.

Description from the eBay auction:
"It has been stored for a few years now, so I am looking to sell. When I first acquired it, some of the pads were sticky, and the battery contacts were fairly corroded. I therefore set about dismantling, cleaning, and getting it back into full working order. The result is a fully-working machine, with a few cosmetic scratches (which can be expected from a 25 year old Roland) and it will work from batteries (contacts cleaned up well) as well as from the optional power supply socket. It has been a pleasure to own this machine of the classic Roland TR series, but I'm saving up for my current photographic hobby hence the sale. This will also be sold with the original manual, although the manual is available for free download from Roland."

If you're interested in buying the 505 please head over to the eBay auction via this link.

The machine will be up for auction until March 2nd, 2012 (15:57 GMT)

If you have any further questions then please get in contact with @JohndMcCormick on Twitter or Via the eBay seller page.

Punished 909 kit (MC-303) - Free samples


OK, so they're not actual 909 samples. The samples here are taken from the 909 kit on my MC-303 groovebox (Which are recorded from an original 909).

The MC303 has a really nice gritty sound to it (especially when you turn up the low boost), to add to that gritty flavour I ran the sounds through some plugins (Drive, EQ and Compressor).

There are 17 one-shot samples in this kit in .wav format. As always the Voltage-Controlled samples are completely royalty free so you can use them in any project you want without having to clear them.
