Korg Rhythm 55B KR-55B inc Separate Outs
Brand: Korg
Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).
Great condition, serviced and running well. Modified with six separate outputs. We absolutely love the sound of these Korg beat boxes.
The KR-55B is the "jazz" version of the classic 55. Much less common, with a lot of different rhythms and a total of 96 different options.
These are great drum machines - 96 rhythm patterns (plus intros and fills) which can also be tweaked by the swing parameter, opening up a huge variety of different rhythms. It features a trig out for analogue synths/sequencers. Sonically all-analogue and good and meaty.
Serviced and in excellent working order - all pots move smoothly and noiselessly and all pots, switches and knobs function exactly as they should. Modified by our tech with 6 mini-jack sockets on the side for the separate outputs.
(It is always possible with vintage equipment that crackly pots/sliders may develop over time when equipment has not been used - even during shipping - this can usually be easily rectified either by a few turns or in extreme cases, with suitable switch-cleaning spray).
CONDITION: Very good overall. Some scuffs and marks to the top of the case.
For sales in UK/EU the price will include 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.
VOLTAGE:
- This is a 100v Japanese model and will run fine on North American mains 115/120v without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use.
- A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU.
- We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers and can supply a high quality UK-made unit if required. Check out our store (it’s the 50va unit you need) or get in touch if you need assistance.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."
DAVID WRENCH
“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."

“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
