6-FX Drums The Rhythm Sound Cards are WAV data files that you load onto the drum machine unit. Designed by the artists in conjunction with Yamaha engineers to provide very realistic patterns, patches, kits and songs.  They are also ultra rare, I have heard some crazy offers over the years from synth nuts around the world so if you take care of them you will likely be able to resell them at a profit in years to come.
Sounds are surprisingly modern and with cards you have hundreds of patterns, patches, kits, pad banks, songs and all tweakable within the unit or via midi in/out/thru. In addition to RY30 cards, the unit can also load sounds from RM50 cards and some of SY/TG series expansion cards Internal battery replaced about 7 years ago so you should be good for a decade or so. PDF of Manual is free at Yamaha's website. No Trades, Prices Firm.  $750.00 for the drum machine/power supply/manual and 6 rhythm sound cards.
