Roland CR-68 CompuRhythm Analogue Electronic Musical Rhythm Machine - 100V
Rare, vintage CR-68! The CR-68 was released in 1978 and is closely related to the famous CR-78. The CR-68 has the same sound set and rhythm patterns, but is not programmable and lacks some of the other features. However, the CR-68 does have breaks & fills, an accent that really livens up its beats, and a balance knob that can be used to weird-out the sounds a little bit.
The CR-68 offers up the basic set of rhythms and sounds. There's 4 Rock, 2 Disco, Waltz, Shuffle, Slow Rock, Swing, Fox Trot, Tango, etc... The sounds are analog and include kick, snare, rim, hi-hat, cymbal, maracas, claves, cowbell and congas. (Text taken from Vintage Synth Explorer)

- Please be aware this unit is 100V. This means it MUST be used with a step-down transformer, not a travel adaptor. If you are unsure about this please let us know. We have some great, compatible step-downs for sale HERE. They are designed in Australia for use in Australia and can be run 24/7.
