Super-clean example. We love these old Roland PA mixers and this early model from the 70s has particularly satisfying and rich distortion when driven hard.

Demo of this actual unit below.
We’re not using the internal amps to drive speakers, but taking a line out; the combination of the EQ, built-in spring reverb and effect send, plus the build quality, makes this a versatile analogue unit with a great sound. As usual with us it’s a lot to do with what happens as you overdrive the inputs with synths, drum machines, drums or outputs from your DAW. If you’ve been following our adventures on Instagram or Facebook then you will have heard these in action.
Serviced and sounding great.
It is working well with all pots and faders functioning (some crackle is always possible with vintage units but this will clear with use or use of cleaning fluid).
Complete with original box and clearly only lightly used. Has only the most minor scuffs or signs of age. The face is very clean with a few small dings on the front edge. Tolex is excellent with no noticeable damage or wear. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.
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.
For sales in UK/EU the price will include 20% VAT. If you have an EU VAT number (outside the UK) you can enter it at check out to have VAT removed.
We can't stop here, this is bat country! Our next auction (November 22nd) features some head-turning, show-stopping synths, however we also wanted to put the spotlight...
