Ace Tone Rhythm Fever FR-106 Rare Vintage Analogue Drum Machine Rhythm Box Japan
Made in Japan by Nihon Hammond during the latter half of the 1970s, the Ace Tone Rhythm Fever FR-106 is a rare preset analogue rhythm machine from the closing years of the original Ace Tone era.
It produces six analogue percussion sounds: bass drum, snare drum, cymbal, low conga, high conga and claves. These are arranged into 22 preset rhythms, including Waltz, Slow Rock, Jazz Waltz, Rumba, Beguine, Mambo, Bossa Nova, Cha-Cha, Tango, Samba, three 8-Beat patterns, two 16-Beat patterns, Disco, Bass & Snare, March, Shuffle, Habanera and two Swing patterns.
Controls include volume, tempo and a balance control for altering the relationship between the bass drum and cymbal sounds. A Double Tempo function instantly changes the rhythm rate, while compatible footswitches can provide remote start/stop and double-tempo operation.
