Bandmaster Powerhouse met complete set tapes (
Bijzonder en weinig voorkomend apparaat met een defect. Heeft dus wat aandacht nodig. Het plastic onderdeel dat de tapehead vastklemt is gebroken. Kan gelijmd worden (is compleet). Verder moet de tapehead ook eens worden schoongemaakt.
De vraagprijs betreft een minimumprijs. Laat me weten hoeveel je er voor over hebt. Ik sta ook open voor ruilvoorstellen.
Wat info over het apparaat:
The Bandmaster Powerhouse is a drum machine that plays back custom-made 8-track cartridges containing solo drum and percussion loops. The difference between it and many drum machines (technically it may not even be called a drum machine), is that these loops were live recordings of a real drummer. In that respect it resembles the Wurlitzer Sideman, Chamberlin Rhythmate, or the Mattel Optigan if playing discs with drumbeats included.
Inserting a cartridge gives you 8 loops, categorised in 4 modes each containing a pair of tempo-sync'd rhythms. Some cartridges contained solo percussion rhythms; ranging from solo bongos, to timbales, tambourines and cowbells.
Each Powerhouse tape concentrated on different styles. The unit shipped with 8 tapes as standard, but there was a rare 4-tape Disco/Hustle expansion pack, and an even rarer 2-tape Nashville expansion pack. So 14 tapes for a total of 112 rhythms in different styles.
The Powerhouse was made in Scotland in the mid-1970s and had U.S distribution. It remains largely undiscovered, but has users ranging from Mount Kimbie to Vangelis.
