Korg Rhythm 55 in excellent cosmetic condition and perfect working order.
These are great drum machines - 96 rhythm patterns (plus intros and fills) which can also be tweaked by the swing parameter, opening up a huge variety of different rhythms. It features a trig out for analogue synths/sequencers - sonically all-analogue and good and meaty: see YouTube demo below (not this exact machine, same model - with thanks to the uploader):
It is in perfect working order - all pots move smoothly and noiselessly and all pots, switches and knobs function exactly as they should.
It is a UK 240v model: the plug will be removed before shipping unless the buyer requests otherwise (except 110v countries where a step-up transformer will be required - not included in sale).
From VSE:
The KR55 was, for its time (1979), an advanced preset rhythm drum machine with up to 96 preset rhythm patterns! These patterns cover the whole gamut of presets (Waltz, Samba, Rhumba, Bossa Nova, Tango, Slow Rock, Swing, Rock, etc.). The KR55 also featured a "swing beat" control to add a variation to the groove. Each drum sound's level can be individually adjusted for each pattern. It can also be externally controlled via footswitch jack for the Start/Stop and Intro/Fill switches. The KR55B was a black-chassis version released a few years later in 1982 with twice as many rhythm patterns. It has been used by Jean-Michel Jarre, Trio and Depeche Mode.
