Roland W-30 Sampling Music Workstation

The W-30 was the first music workstation from Roland, and it was sample-based, with both ROM and user samples available for sound creation. It basically contained the engine of the S-550 sampler combined with a superb Roland's MRC sequencer and a keyboard. The W-30 is compatible with the sound library of Roland's S50, S330 & S550 dedicated samplers, which is now in the public domain.

The workstation's back panel features a blanking-plate labelled "SCSI". This allowed the very rare "KW30 SCSI kit" upgrade to be fitted. The KW30 gave the W-30 the ability to behave as an SCSI Master device, and drive SCSI hard drives and CD-ROM players through a standard 25-pin SCSI cable. Copying samples to an SCSI hard drive (maximum usable capacity: 80Mb) dramatically reduce load time compared to the built-in 3.5" floppy disk drive.

Synthesizer and sampler 

16-voice polyphony 

Sample-based synthesis engine: ROM/RAM waves can be processed with TVF, TVA, envelopes, LFOs etc. 

16-track x 16-channel MRC-style sequencer with macro/micro editing

SOLD - Roland JX 8P Analog Synthesizer SALE

Crafted with six-voice polyphony, MIDI capability and dual DCOs, the Roland JX-8P Analog Synthesizer is an excellent introduction into the world of vintage synthesis. 

Conceived as a streamlined, stage-friendly unit with easily adjusted sliders controlling the synthesis parameters, the JX-8P's 64-section memory bank summons sound from warm liquid oscillation to metallic vibrato attack in the breadth of a finger roll. 

Built on the same technology as its more famous JUNO cousin, this stalwart has been used by the likes of Depeche Mode and 808 State.

SOLD - VESTAX PCM 170 A Pro Mixing Controller DJ BOXED

PDF Free Manual Download

The PMC-170A is not a scratch mixer, it's a techno/trance mixer...

If you're spinning techno, trance, hardcore, etc. the PMC-170A is a really good mixer, featuring:

- 3 bands EQ
- Kill switches
- 2 channels with crossfader
- 1 independent channel
- 2 lines + 1 phono on each channel (that means 6 lines and 3 phonos)
- Effects send/return
- Two Outputs (Master line out, Rec Out)
- 4 microphones inputs (3 aux, 1 main)

However, lacking from a BOOTH output, it's not a good mixer for a club or a rave... It's really a HOME mixer.

SOLD - The Roland VP-9000 VariPhrase sampler/vocal processor

The Roland VP-9000 VariPhrase Processor is a revolutionary sampler/vocal processor. It is a sampler capable of elastic real-time manipulation of pitch, time, and formants via MIDI while maintaining superb sound quality. With the VP-9000 you can instantly match drum loops to the same key and tempo. Or use it to bend notes, change pitches or harmonize and more! It all works in real-time with little artefacts and in a non-destructive environment. Thankfully, the VP-9000 features three large knobs for real-time control over pitch, time, format, and groove right on the front of the module for real-time tweaking!

The VP-9000 comes with 8MB memory which is expandable to 136MB using optional SIMMs. The VP-9000 is a professional equipped with six analogue outputs plus digital I/O in coaxial and optical formats; two SCSI ports for connecting hard drives, Zip drives, and CD-ROM's; internal 250MB Zip drive for storing samples and transferring files to a Mac or PC. There are superb effects built-in as well-reverb, chorus, and multi-effects. The VP-9000 also features a large icon-based graphic LCD screen for wave editing and simplified operation. Internal resampling capability is great for applying effects to samples over and over, etc. The VP-9000 is also compatible with VP-9000/Roland S-700/Akai S1000/AIFF/.WAV format files for loading sample libraries. The VP-9000's only fault is a limited 6-voices and 6-part multitimbrality. But this could be the best sampler/processor of all time and requires a listen! It is used by Fatboy Slim.

Although the initial operating system was known to have numerous bugs (particularly causing crashes), the release of OS 1.12 fixed these problems (The updated operating system is available from Roland's website at no charge). The price tag upon release was $3000, a hefty investment considering there are software applications that can do (almost) the same thing, but for traditional or electronic musicians that need to take their loops\songs\samples on the road, or for a studio musicians that enjoys a more hands on approach to beat synchronizing or time stretching samples this unit is for you! This unit is also responsible for the now passe 'robot' sound that has popularized popular music as of late (ala Daft Punk, and most R&B artists). No other sampler in the market has the same unique features that the VP-9000 offers.

And with the new V-Producer software package for Mac and PC-compatible, you can take full control of your VP-9000! It gives you fully intuitive and handsome graphics interfaces for Phrase Scope Editing, drag-and-drop sequencing of Variphrase samples, 6-channel mixing and effects routing along with MIDI Clock and MTC sync, song export to Standard MIDI File format, batch encoding of.WAV/AIFF files from CD-ROM/hard disk or VP-9000 samples via Zip disk and more!
