I'm listing other items. If you win multiple items, I will happily combine shipping.  The TR-808 is a classic drum machine that uses analog synthesis to create its sounds. The sounds have avery pure quality and are closer to the sound of the CR-series of Roland drum machines, as opposed to itspopular successor, the TR-909. The TR-808 has become the signature beatbox used in most R&B and hip-hop as well as a lot of dance and techno music. Booming bass kicks, crispy snares and a distinctive cowbellsound made famous in the 1980's are all part of the 808 and its famous sound. Its 16 drum sounds include the famous boomy 808 kick, snare, low/mid/high toms, low/mid/high congas,rimshot, claves, hand clap, maracas, cowbell, cymbal, open hi-hat, closed hi-hat and accent. Most of thesounds can be edited. Bass Drum and Cymbal (tone, decay), Snare (tone, snappy), Toms and Congas(tuning), Open Hat (decay). All sounds have individual volume controls and individual outputs.Unfortunately it was not MIDI equipped but it did use Roland's DIN Sync.
