Oberheim DX 1982 Drum Machine. Functional and sounds terrific. Includes all sound chips. Powers on and was cleaned out a few years ago when I rescued it from my friend's shed. There may be some dust but no where near the decade of dirt that was there when I found it. After cleaning it powered up and I've been jaming with the live functions from time to time. Haven't ever programed any sequences (mainly because I don't know how to) but it plays sequences programed by the past owner. Most of the switches work but not all. However you can trigger the sounds by making a connection on the underside of the circuit board so they most likely need re-soldering on the reverse side I assume. The volume sliders don't seem to work too well but since each channel has it's own output for studio recording, individual volume control would be a sinch when hooked up to an external mixer. Missing two slider knobs as pictured. Fun vintage drum machine that has a legendary pedigree. New Order - Blue Monday is probably my fav but if you are looking at this I'm sure you've done your research. This Oberheim DX is functional and works. However, because of it's age and condition and the fact that I couldn't fully repair it or test the recording functions I am listing this AS-IS and want it to go to a new owner who can fix it 100%Please contact me if you have any questions. Serious inquiries only!
