I had an R64 mk II back around 1986 - 1990s. Standard PCM samples and preset patterns of the day, but pretty loud and robust, liked the toms and percussion. No MIDI, but it had pattern clock outputs AND inputs, which was cool to sync it with a Korg KR-55B. Neat agogo fills and each sound had its own volume knob. Mine was a floor demo, the cymbal bled through terribly. Had a lot fun processing it through pitch shifters and such.

I knocked it off a chair and the oversized US power transformer cracked the main PCB, it went all retarded on me. Techs at the US distributor were more interested in selling me new MIDIshit than fixing it. I left it out in front of my building in Brooklyn NYC, it was gone in ten minutes.

wicked vid ...& sounds
 
Characteristics 9/10
It is an ancient drum machine samples to 12 bits. All the connections are analog type, compatible Korg MS and CS Yam.
64 preset rhythms, no ability to program, but ...
connectors: audio mono out, stereo out, snare out, in trig, trig out (to sync with a sequencer, an LFO, etc. ...), start / stop, break, claps solo (I forget).
Sounds: bass drum, snare, TOM1, TOM2, rim shot, hi hat, claves, bongo, agogo, hand claps, cymbals.
knob a volume for each instrument! almost as flexible as the program knows when the machine!
A knob tempo.
knob a master volume.
In addition to the rear connections, there is a switch on the front panel start / stop, one for breaks, to activate or deploy two types of two claps and three for percussion.
Utilization 10/10
Setup is very simple: everything is visible, accessible and understandable at a glance.
Sounds 10/10
The sounds are surprisingly warm and organic for the PCM 12 bits! It really looks like the analog. Realism is not the Update main asset, but the sounds have a strong character and very addictive.
I get the best result on a Marshall amp JMP100 with a bit of saturation: dirty and loud Wishing!
Overall Opinion 10/10
I use it for 2 months.
Bought second hand 83 Roros ... it was a kind of gamble for that gear with exotic you never hear about: Lovely surprise!
Nothing to do with my old late Boss DR-55, I liked. Although non-programmable, this thing has certainly more depth and panache! (Solid wood sides do not spoil!)
Even if you are looking for a programmable bar, try it: the possibility of fortification and independent volumes for each sound is a rudimentary but effective programmability.
If you are looking for an analog bar, try it also: the sound will surprise you!
