ROLAND MC-202 FOR SALE (#2)
 Vintage Analog Sequencer / Synthesizer

 

Here's a quick video of this MC-202 in action: 


GENERAL INFO: 

This is a really cool little machine. Think of it as half way between a Roland TB-303 and SH-101. Its like Rolands X0X box "workstation". Theres a built in analog synth section which can deliver some really fat bass sounds, blips and bloops as well as surprisingly good lead sounds. It also has a very interesting on board sequencer which can be used to control other old Rolands as well as other synths with 1 volt per octave CV and gate, like Sequential Circuits and ARP products. The sequencer can either be used in real time (you can play notes into it while recording) or in step time, where you have lots of control over gate and step time and can add accents and portamento. Adding accent to the filter and amplifier gives an effect similar to the TB-303's accent - very unique. There are actually 2 sequencer channels so you can use the 1st to control the internal synth and the 2nd to control another analog synth. It runs off batteries or standard adaptor (not included) so is nice and portable. There are jacks to connect it to a tape recorder for memory backup. Its got DIN sync connections designed to synchronize it with the TB-303, TR-808, TR-606, CR-8000, and TR-909 drum machines among others. This is a really fun machine and is great for funky basslines. We like it for techno and trance, but it can be used for a wide range of styles. 


CONDITION:

 Our items are as described, which means no typical surprise post-sale repair bills or serious flaws typical of most vintage gear deals! 

This MC-202 is in great shape for a used item of its type and age.  It was just recalibrated and tech-checked and approved.  All features appear to be working as they should and it sounds great.  All jacks were tested and working well.  

Cosmetics are great as well.  Here are the minor imperfections most people wouldn't bother mentioning:  Theres what looks to be hot glue reinforcing what appears to be a slight crack in the battery compartment door.  It's secure the way it is.  There's also a tiny hairline fracture in the left side, middle of the plastic case.  One of the rubber keys has a few tiny chips.  This unit  should make most people looking for a used MC-202 very happy! 

Don’t let our overly critical descriptions discourage you, check out the detailed photos above!
