The proverbial pikkusormi to the paholainen. The original Roland CR-78 is the sound of my late childhood and early teenagedom, if there is such a word. A really recognisable set of drum sounds from the early synth music I was listening to, much more special to me than the otherwise legendary X0X machines. Ultravox / John Foxx especially is what this always reminds me of. Of course I’ve had samples of it since forever, but it was only 108€ at Thomann, which is really an unbelievable price for an analog drum machine.
