FS: MFB 502 Analogue Drum Machine in London

[ar2jr]

Hello everyone:

I am selling my MFB 502 drum machine as I just do not use it as much I should. It sounds wonderful. Very vintage minimal german sound. If you are into late 70's/early 80's industrial/synth pop you are going to absolutely love the 502. It has now been discontinued and the 522 DOES NOT sound like the 502. The 502 is sort of like a CR drum machine, very organ-like sounds and a VERY unique clap. My favorite sounds were the tom's and congas. Has a very nice step sequencer that locks to midi clock and each sound can be triggered via midi. You can also trigger the different possible tunings off of midi so you can play two different snare or kick tunings. Very nice! Also the kick has a lot of thump. I have loads of analog drum boxes and this guy sits perfectly in a mix. The snare is a very snappy 808/606 like snare. There is nothing tonally cheap about the MFB. I've got the manual in PDF as well should you need it (like for seeing what instruments are assigned to specific midi notes). The unit is in excellent shape and I've had it for quiet some time now.

I bought this one off of vintagesynth.com forum member Nadafarms. My name on ebay is assortednoise and have excellent feedback and references from vintagesynth.com as well. This sale is for UK/EU only. Pictures are of the exact unit for sale. I accept Paypal or an official Money Order. Buyer to pay for shipping (but this thing is tiny and doesn't weigh a lot).

Asking for £120 or €140 plus shipping. Please no trades.






Cheers,
