Hello, Homerecording budget hounds:
After some consideration, I have decided to part with my Dr-5 and assorted accessories. I don't need it as much as I thought, and did not liquidate it last fall with other studio gear.
If you have had one of these and know about the power these versatile units, skip ahead. The Dr-5 is more than a drum machine, as it has a General MIDI brain, with keyboard, guitar, bass, string, and synth sounds. It also has a 4-track MIDI sequencer to record your own patterns. Simply muting the instrument tracks and playing the preset drum patterns will provide an extremely useful performance/practice tool for you. Guitar? You can use the guitar input and set it to be a cheap headphone amp, or play along with a rhythm pattern. You can even have it do pitch-to-MIDI and trigger sounds! Fun! Too much to list. I have a manual for it. I downloaded the PDF, and gradually printed it out, and had it professionally bound (spiral) with a clear plastic cover front and black back. Read it, and the possibilities are endless for the Dr-5. No major cosmetic problems.
The Boss FS-5U footswitches seem expensive at first (MSRP $29.95 EACH!), but they are extremely durable, and since they have a polarity, switch, are extremely versatile. These can be used as footswitches for your keyboard or another drum machine/sequencer/etc. I used them to control the Dr-5's functions via hooking them together and using a stereo cable. This cable is included in the price.
The 2 10-ft Spectraflex cables are used for left and right channel audio out of the Dr-5. I love braided cables, since they are extremely resistant to kinking up on you, and are very professional and classy-looking.
The MIDI cables are included FREE, as are a few patch cables that I don't bother with. (I always put free knick knacks in my deals).
If you made it this far, you are interested.

Reply for questions, e-mail addresses, etc.
