so what is he going to use from now on benji to make acid?

[davethedrummer]

yes it's true
Heres the sales pitch from eBay

The Grandfather of all drum machines has to be the Roland TR909

It is single handedly responsible for the creation of Acid House Music and beginning of the musical revolution known as Techno Music.
This particular 909 has featured on so many techno records that it's earned it's place in techno history just for that alone.
This is my drum machine, my artist name is Dave The Drummer and I have made about 200 records with it.
if you want to hear it in action you can check my discogs page http://www.discogs.com/artist/D.A.V.E.+The+Drummer
and listen to any of my tunes that are listed there, they have all been made with this machine.

Why am I selling it ?
To be honest I don't really want to, but I haven't used it for years now, it's gathering dust and guess what? I need the cash.
So there it is.

It has been gigged a LOT so expect some dents and scratches, one of the 16 step buttons disappeared a few years back
so I replaced it with a new button sold by Chip for Brains here on Ebay unfortunately the color is not quite right, mine have yellowed a bit with age
so button 1 looks very gray, a bit clean and crisp in comparison to the others.

Yeah yeah, it's been in a smokey studio ( I'm really not trying to sell this am I ?)
I can't claim to have had it in a beautiful pristine environment all it's life like other Ebayers will pretend ( I mean, come on, it's over 20 years old! )
but I don't smoke any more and my studio has always been very clean and it's been looked after as best I could have looked after it, but I'm no angel.

But, I tell you what, oh boy, it works. And once you have a go on the 16 step sequencer and get into some real-time step pattern writing you'll be hooked. It sounds beautiful, no pot crunches, all the buttons and individual outputs work, everything works, full stop.
Dubstep, Grime, Hip Hop, Techno, House you name it this machine will stamp it's authority all over your chosen music, so watch those speakers!!

Plus I have a manual, yes indeed.

So, do you want it ?
well the answer is up to you my friend.


Sorry I'm not posting it , no way never NO NO NO please don't ask, I might have to swear at you.
I don't trust the royal thieving mail to not smash it to pieces so I'm afraid it's pick up only.


so there it is.

maybe we should get in touch with the National Lottery see if it can prevented from being purchased for the benefit of English culture. Like Winston Churchill's war letters.
