“Selling my beautiful totaled pimped out Forat F9000 drum machine sampler. Legendary 8 bit sound. It comes with Road Case and full floppy library.
Forat worked on it and changed the memory battery a few months back, I will have him check it again before i ship it. “Thats why i listed it as “Seller Refurbished”
It has the best feel for beat programming and if you do some research you will see how legendary this machine is. ” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
