OT - Roland TR-77 Modification Question

[rob]

Er, do you mean a roland Rythm 77? I have one of those, and hell yes they
are strange as they come! My buddy got one from a crackhead who kept saying
it was a guitar amp head, so, away he went with it for 20 bux. They are
really wierd and rare, so I would say get it up and running if you can..

Also, too, if you don't mod it, its basically useless.

I have found the triggering for the unit long ago, and I just send a
trigger signal into it to run the individual sounds. I gave up on the tempo
long ago :)
