Rare BIAS BS-2 drum synth for sale in full working order.
Gleaming chrome finish and more knobs and switches than seems sensible on such a diminutive box – they packed a lot of options into this one… Capable of some truly insane electronic drum (and other) sounds – from deep stomach-churning bass to tweeter-ripping highs (you have been warned). A big favourite here.
Trigger it from an external source (or footswitch), or just hit it (carefully – it’s not that robust, and it is very pretty).
The BS-2 circuit is different to the B-1, plus it has trigger in, noise (a switch for two different flavours, plus a balance control) and an “effect” control the changes the sound of the synth.
This is the (we presume) earlier battery powered variant – most BS-2’s we are powered by 9v PSU but this one has a battery panel on the rear instead. The printing on the front is also slightly different.
Please exhibit caution – extreme levels of bass and high frequencies are possible. They don’t make them like this any more (and they didn’t appear to make very many – almost never seen for sale)…
Excellent. Has some marks and wear to the paintwork but nothing serious. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.
Powered by a 9v battery.
