“This is a Roland TR-505 drum machine. It’s old, it’s used, it doesn’t work when I plug it in.

It worked when I packed it away ten years ago, so who knows—maybe it’s just corrosion on the AC adapter socket. That’s for you to figure out, though, not me.

You’re buying it as-is, with no guarantee other than looking like it does in the photos.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“I purchased these at an estate sale and neither will power up.

The TR-707 is in very good cosmetic condition – maybe some dust. The graphics in the window are blurred and the battery cover is missing.

The TR-505 is in poor cosmetic condition. Some of the buttons on the bottom row and area below is dented and chipped. You can see the area in the last picture. The paper pattern guide sheet is peeling away from the unit and the battery compartment had old batteries leak. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland TR-505 Rhythm Composer, Used

Tested – Everything Works Great!

I found this beauty recently when I was going through some old equipment in storage. I have personally cleaned this unit in an out with contact cleaner and have tested afterwords to ensure that everything functions properly. This unit works and sounds like new.

This listing is for the Roland TR-505 Rhythm Composer unit ONLY, nothing else is included.

I tested this unit with 6 AA batteries and it worked great, as expected.
*I do have an ac power adapter (NOT INCLUDED) that I would be willing to add to sale. Please message me about a separate transaction.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

The only flaw that I found was on the left knob. Someone must have bumped it with a sharpie marker. Could easily be removed.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Roland TR-505 drum machine in fair cosmetic condition and will not power up. Resoldered a broken battery tray wire and the power jack terminals. Still will not power up with batteries, no power supply to test with. The battery compartment cover and tempo/volume knobs are missing. Selling as parts only. Circuit boards and connectors and buttons all appear perfectly fine to me. Could be an easy fix or used for restoring a damaged TR-505 or to start a modified drum machine circuit bending project. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Working Vintage Roland tr-606, tr-505, MSQ-100, and DOEPFER MSY2 (din sync to midi converter). Play these classic machines live with Ableton. The star of the show is the Vintage Roland tr-606 Drumatix. Sad to part with this amazing machine. As seen in the photos there is some wear around the sync and the accent knob, but does not effect sound or functionality. The tr-505 also has some wear as they have both been used. The msq-100 works great and is in almost perfect condition. The DOEPFER MSY2 is mint and still has the box and manual which I will send. Power adapters are included for every device shown and listed. I will ship with tracking. No Returns. Hope you make some awesome electronic music!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Found this tr505 unopened in original box. I tested to make sure everything worked before selling, so the bag is opened. It is in perfect condition, but the box is a little worn. Its missing the manual.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

Shows normal signs of wear. Sounds and works great! Only problem is the screen, you have to kind of press it to see what you’re programming. I’m sure it’s an easy fix if you look into it, but it still works.

Doesn’t come with the power supply which is a regular 9v, but works great with 6 (AA) batteries.

I’m only letting it go because I need the money. I will miss it, but we all win!” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Here’s my Tr-505 Drum machine, When I bought it it didn’t turn on so I took it to a technician and he fixed the power problem but it’s previously been modded and the guy must have blown the ROM chip because the audio is very distorted and bitty.

I used this as a sequencer for my novation drumstation so it can be useful.

Comes with power supply. The battery cover is missing and on the back there is a small bit of melted plastic. Other than that its aesthetically fine.” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“features 16 drum tones. It does feature extensive MIDI implementation, even the pads will transmit MIDI data. The 505 works well with a computer and sequencer or as a stand alone drum machine.

Unit is in extremely great shape, very clean like new and so are the manuals.. Comes with new battery’s and is guaranteed to work just as the day it was new” Click here to visit listing on eBay

“Diabolical Modified Roland TR-505 Drum Machine:

Here we have a Circuit Bent Roland TR-505 with custom case and paint mega modified by James Gramling of Class A Electronics aka Diabolical Devices. Like to 505 itself the mods are a stripped down version of the TR-707 mods we are “famous” for. Check out Diabolical Devices on the web.

TR-505 Modification:

(6) Pitch/CLK speed controls were added they affect each sound/group individually and cover all sounds except for Hi-Hat and Cymbals. These controls affect the pitch by Changing the clock speed of the sampled sounds playback, at lower speeds you get a really cool bit-reduction, think Linndrum or the spongy snare sound in early Prince stuff.

(6) 1/4″ Individual Line Outputs with level controls. These outputs correspond to each of the pitch controls and cover all the same sounds/groups. When an output is used that sound is removed from the MAIN MIX (master output) which allows you to mix/or process some sounds independently.

10 point Circuit Bending ROM interface (Banana Jacks) This patch bay allows you access to a ton of unique effects by scrambling ROM data as the machiine is playing a sound back. Linking patc points with provided cables will generate a wide range of effects including distortions, filtered sounds, ring mods and more. The affect all sounds in most cases.

This item includes Patch cables, Power supply, original Roland instruction manual, and mod instruction. ” Click here to visit listing on eBay
