PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Roland 6 channel spring reverb mixer for sale in excellent condition, serviced and working perfectly. This unit shares the same spring tank as the RE-201 Space Echo. We love the sound and the EQ is very usable – a great studio tool for summing and adding character/texture.
120v unit – more info on voltage below.
Description
These 70s Roland mixers sound great, especially when you overdrive the inputs – can really add punch to DAW beats and synths and have a superb built-in spring reverb (equivalent to the RE-201 spring). We’ve been getting lots of positive feedback from customers using them to add texture and colour to drum machines, synths etc. Check the stock list (link above) for more models.
Output is via a single, mono 1/4″ jack at the rear. Also has an effect send and return which can be assigned to any of the channels in place of the internal spring reverb. Note that, unlike some of our previous VX-55s, this one does not have the phono and aux option on the first two channels – instead all six channels are identical.
Serviced and working well. Note that the amp section has not been tested with speakers attached. The pots and switches have been cleaned are currently fine, though it’s possible that some crackle may develop over time, especially when unused – this will usually clear with use.
See our social media feeds for these mixers in action in plenty of our demos.
Condition
Excellent cosmetic condition with only minor wear to the face. The jack sockets and other metal sections are showing some oxidation. The tolex is clean with minimal scuffing. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.
Voltage Information
120v unit (100v originally but switched to 120v operation). A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU. We can supply a 100va unit which will work for this mixer (if you are not using the amp to drive speakers) - see the Accessories section of the site. We do not recommend using cheap, generic Chinese mains transformers.
Tax
For sales in UK/EU the price will include 20% VAT. VAT-free sales are possible to businesses and individuals in the EU (outside the UK) with a valid VAT Number - please get in touch if you wish to buy this way.
