I just got an R8 on ebay for $91 delivered (!!). Now, I already know this thing is about as bendable as a 1/2 ton truck frame. But Since it was sold as untested and as is I'm assuming it's broken in some way. Any one ever take a look inside one of these Mofocko's? How easy would, say one of the buttons, be to fix? Power supply problems?
Dumb purchase?
I had one, but right As I was beginning to understand the basics of it, the garage my room was in burned down. I still have some cards though (power drums, and jaz brushes).

Hi, i have tried bending a R8 too. With no great success, only some distortion and a lot of crashes (very annoying to bend) -> not preferable. But you can use the pads to trigger MIDI equipment since the pads sends midi messages.

Here at S-CAT is a ROLAND R-8 drum machine with 8 bends, There are plenty more but 8 on an R-8 is just right.
Oh for gods sake. Look, this forum is for the discussion of circuitbending. This forum is not for shameless self promotion of circuitbent stuff you have to sell. I don't think that is unreasonable in any way and everyone else seems to respect and understand this. I could send you a private message but if you decide to behave like this in public then i guess I'll have to work on the same level but i have to say its getting tiresome. If anyone thinks any of this is unreasonable I'm happy to listen and consider your ideas.
If you have anything to actually contribute to a discussion on circuitbending such as tips on how to bend a Roland R8 or in the other thread you seem to have hijacked with your self promotion, a Casio SA-2, then by all means feel free to contribute and I'm sure everyone can avoid squabbling like children.
As it is I'm not going to get into an argument and you can't blackmail anyone with your 'We can not tell anyone how to bend an R-8 unless you decide that we should be able to let people know about our ebay site' nonsense because i for one really don't care in the slightest about the Roland R8 or your ebay site or if anyone chooses to contact you or not, and I'm quite happy to just remove you from the forum if you can't play nicely like all the other kids.
As I've said many times before on here, play nicely or not at all.
Thankyou for your time.
Did someone mention an ebay site..................... Strangely everything this post was referrimng to seems to have been edited out, make of that what you will.

You seem to be very good at promoting us, The more you complain the more people will want to find out about us, We do not care about do this or do that we just do what we want, What are you a copper or sumfin sunshine?
S-CAT IS OUT THERE AND ON THE CASE, KEEP WATCHING THE FURY CREATURE GROW.

I'm so embarressed on your behalf S-CAT You've signed up to a forum and acted like a 15 year old having a tantrum insulting the owner and moderators in the process and actually think that this endears you to people? You actually think you can act like this and do whatever you want on someone elses forum and not have people think you are a dick and get banned?!!!! Do you do this on every forum you join?

If it wasn't so tragic it would be funny
We are glad to see that we are getting such a strong reaction from people, What is this site about? We are having such a laugh at all of you. Do you really think that people who circuit bend machines would be interested in buying machines from other circuit benders? Why take us so seriously? We are not really interested in this site and especially the moderator. He is the one who decided to re-word our self promotion. Is he that clever? all that is going on here is a site that seems to have lots of questions and no answers. Have you tried some of the bends that people post on this site? We have and thought that they were some of the worst bends that could be done to a machine.
You seem to think that we are having a tantrum, why is that? You need to read the comments from us with your tongue in your cheek. We have entered a site that promotes circuit bending. So what did they expect from us?
Please keep this thread going as it could develop into something worth reading if you give it a chance.
