DX

“Vintage ’80’s Oberheim DX Programable Digital Drum Machine. This drum machine is an early version and does not have MIDI. The overall condition is very good while showing some wear from age and use. All buttons and sliders are in good working order. The original samples sound great and each one can be tuned using the back controls. We were able to record some drum patterns and play them back. We did not try interfacing a cassette, so those functions were not tested. Includes an AC cable. Sold as-is. ”

“Vintage Oberheim DX in good working order. I purchased this back in the 90s and it’s been working ever since. Please see the pics for condition. It has a few scrapes on it here and there but it works fine. I was able to erase the memory and then program a new sample into it without issue. It looks like it may be the original battery in there but it hasn’t leaked or anything.

I’ve also included a set of chips with it that I did not test. The system has the ride cymbals setup in it right now and some crash cymbal chips and a different snare chip are included with the auction. I received these when I purchased it years ago. They should be working. If not, I think you can get new chips for these on the web pretty easily.

The only key that seems to be not working 100% is the Shaker2 key. It works if you press it a few times and then sometimes it works fine.

It has an old sticker from a music/guitar shop on the bottom of it which could be easily removed but I left it there since it gives a bit of the history of it. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“In great working condition vintage Oberheim DX drum machine, everything on it works all buttons,outputs and faders no doble triggering issues. The pitch knobs are located in the back unlike the DMX which has to be open every time you want to change pitch on the voices. There are some scratches on the side panels and a cpl of scuff marks on the front but overall in great working condition for it’s age. This is the early edition dx so it doesn’t have the midi option, includes original power supply and hard to find original manual..” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“This auction is for an Oberheim DX drum machine. This unit has sat in my closet for 15-20 years. It does power up. However it come up with a CASS error on the display. Talking with someone who works on these it may just be a battery. I cannot confirm this. The symbol prom needs replacing, it makes a car crash sound and has done so since I bought it. It is around 40 years old, needs cleaning and has stickers on it along with missing a slider knob. Comes with power cord. Unit is sold AS-IS.”

“Vintage Oberhiem DX Drum Machine all functions, buttons, and sliders tested great. With power cord, full manual is downloadable for free online. I’m not sure about any expansion roms, but it seems that there are some extra chips and possible board enhancements through comparison with pictures of other units. The “DX sync-to-tape” board for instance is not inside any other unit I could find pictures of online. That’s not to say it wasn’t factory standard, i just don’t know if it was or not.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
