Roland Sequencer

i mean, i'm passed those days of sequencing hardware with hardware but holy snap

if i had money to spare i'd buy it and then resell it on ebay

I dunno man, I don't believe it's that cheap. Maybe you're mistaking it for an MC-4 or the like? This is just a fully digital MIDI sequencer, only MIDI outs I think, no CV/Gate or anything. I have a Kawai Q80 which I bought for 40 euros and it's not that different.

Wouldn't pay more than 100 dollars or something for this.

there's a new one on ebay asking 500 i just figured, might be worth more

Yeah, on ebay the prices are sometimes simply absurd.

just because it has Roland on it doesn't mean its good,

there's plenty of old music gear out there which is simply obsolete and that are more hard work to use than freeware

MC-500 is a fantastic and very accurate sequencer, but you need to hook it up to a keyboard to play in the notes you want to sequence...it is more of a sequence recorder than stand alone sequencer...it may have a step sequence mode usable without a keyboard, but if it has it would be a right ball ache. they usually sell for £100 or less so $165 is top end price wise.

I think DMX (krew) used one of these prior to getting an MPC.

mpc's are great.

I had one that I used some years ago. It is very cumbersome, but good if you get the hang of it. I sold it though.

I've got one lying around somewhere, boxed with manuals etc... The step sequencer mode is wicked I think, super tight timing and really fun to waste time on, but can be awkward!

I've heard through the grapevine that the rhythm sequencer is the same as the 909's...
