Roland VX-55 Mixer with Spring Reverb
Roland VX-55 Mixer with Spring Reverb
Brand: Roland
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).
Roland 6 channel spring reverb mixer for sale in excellent condition, serviced and working perfectly. Shares the same spring tank as the RE-201 Space Echo. We love the sound and the EQ is very useable - a great studio tool for summing and adding character/texture when overdriven.
It is waiting for a final service and will ship in 5 working days from purchase.
120v unit - more info on voltage below.
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.
CONDITION: Excellent; only minor signs of age including some scuffing to the tolex across the edges. See photos for more information on cosmetic condition.
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.
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:
- 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 (you can also buy with a euro plug from that listing). Contact us if you can't find it on our site.
- We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers.

"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."
JOSH LLOYD-WATSON & TOM MCFARLAND - JUNGLE
“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."
