Marky L Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) I have very vague memories of the guitarist in the first (very very poor) band I played in having some sort of very rudimentary drum machine in a pedal format (I think). I don't think it was programable and maybe had a few built in rhythms but I think you could change the speed. It had that very classic synth drum sound with the high hat like a fizzy tambourine maybe sounding a bit like the Roland CR-78. I seem to remember it being black and or green? It wouldn't have been expensive. Anyway, I'm just trying to confirm I do have a viable memory still and I'm not completely in fantasy world yet. Does anyone have any idea what it may have been?

Thunderbird Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Could of been a vintage Pearl brand pedal I think they did one and I'm sure it was black and green 1 Quote

There is at least one other drum machine in the same format but with different branding but IIRC it has exactly the same patterns and sounds. Lots of pre-set drum machine from the late 70s and early 80s do this. There were also 2 Electro Harmonix models - the DRM16 and DRM32 which came in the standard "big Pedal" EHX format. These were quite widely used by fairly well-know bands including early Cabaret Voltaire and Simple Minds. 1 Quote
