Roland TR-707 Rhythm Composer
Includes power adapter, manual, and two memory cartridges.
From the Roland TR-707 Manual
"The Rhythm Composer TR-707 is a fully programmable rhythm machine which allows you to program 4 Rhythm Tracks or tunes (altogether 998 bars) from up to 64 kinds of user-created Rhythm Patterns. Each of the 15 digital drum voices is extremely realistic and has a separate output jack for individual mixing, echo or equalizer.
An optional memory cartridge plugs directly into the Composer for instantaneous loading and saving, expanding the memory by three times. A display window helps your operation to a great extent. MIDI Bus on the rear panel interfaces with other MIDI devices to allow control of several instruments.
Flam (Grace-note) and Shuffle can be added for greater variety and realism. "
Definitely a vintage drum sound from the mid-1980s. In great shape: one small scratch on "keyboard."

Alesis Microverb III
Includes power adapter, in original packaging. Like new. Barely used.
From the manual:
Born from the original Alesis MICROVERB and MICROVERB II, the units that launched the revolution in low cost professional digital reverberation, the MICROVERB III carries on this same tradition of world class performance at a phenomenal price. Using 16 bit linear PCM processing like its predecessors, MICROVERB III has 256 programs. These include 144 reverb programs, 96 delay programs, and 16 special effects programs as well as High and Low Frequency Equalization, MICROVERB III delivers awesome power to the recording efforts of every engineer, from 4 track home studios to world class recording facilities. And, of course, MICROVERB III is full stereo, full 15KHz bandwidth, and absolutely musical.
As with the original MICROVERBs, the MICROVERB III utilizes proprietary Alesis R.I.S.C. (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) architecture which provides clean, quiet, professional digital reverberation, delay, and effects with unprecedented ease of use. The entire digital processing system is contained on a single chip, developed by the Alesis design team specifically for the MICROVERB III. Using high speed complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) silicon processing, the MICROVERB III chip replaces several circuit cards of components while providing a powerful level of sonic flexibility that will expand and polish the sound of any recording.
The 256 programs in MICROVERB III are the distillation of years of exhaustive research by Alesis into
the phenomenon of reverberation. With input from the world’s top recording engineers and producers the reverb programs were carefully developed on our interactive room simulation and development system. These programs cover every major category of reverb: plates, chambers, halls, and rooms, each with a wide range of sizes and qualities. Included also are a number of special effect programs such as gated and reverse reverbs, as well as a wide variety of ever-useful delay programs. From small, intimate room settings to large unobstructed spaces to useful gated reverb effects to dramatic special effects, MICROVERB III offers them all quickly and easily.

iDrum Drum Machine Software for Macintosh (m-audio)
iDrum turns your computer into a slamming beatbox ready to lay down your grooves, your way. From ambient downtempo to bangin' hip hop to frenetic drum and bass. Easy. Fun.
Drum machine neophytes will get to experience the same magical 'instant-gratification' fun that hooked an entire generation of musicians on the hardware drum machines of yesteryear. Pros will find that there's simply no faster, easier way to access and manage large unwieldly drum sample libraries, get a phat beat going, and get it exported into the format you need (and for less money than a replacement pad for your MPC 3000).
iDrum runs as both a standalone native OS X application and as a plug-in for Pro Tools, GarageBand, Logic, and Ableton Live. This means you can use iDrum to create beats from right within your favorite music software environment, perfectly synced with your arrangement and always right where you left it when you return to your project after your next world tour.
Don't feel like pushing buttons with your mouse? Prefer to bang on things instead? iDrum has you covered. Use record mode to tap out beats on an attached MIDI keyboard, or even using your Mac's computer keyboard!
iDrum comes with hundreds of drum samples arranged in nearly two hundred iDrum files, each with several preset patterns programmed by some of the best beatmeisters working today. But these beats are just the beginning -- since you can mix and match parts and samples between kits, and even load your own AIFF and WAV drum samples, the possibilities for beat creation are virtually endless. If you ever run through all the drum sounds that come with iDrum (and it will take you a while, believe us), you can drag any AIFF or WAV file up to 2MB in size into iDrum's channel window. Store up to 99 patterns in a single iDrum file, along with all of the drum sounds you used to make your beat.
iDrum comes with dozens of part presets -- a unique feature that makes it incredibly easy to create amazingly cool beats by simply mixing and matching parts and samples -- even if you've never programmed a beat before. You can even add your own parts to iDrum's part preset library.
Box is open but never used or registered. $48.00 plus $4.80 Priority shipping (within US).
