MSX Audio Special Edition Bleep Drum Machine

4

Hey what’s good fam!

Just wanted to let you know about a special edition product from MSX Audio.

They did a special edition Bleep Drum machine with Bleep Labs.

It’s a battery powered lo-fi drum machine that has their logo enscribed on the back.

I think it’s always great to see companies doing something original and fun, andย MSX is always doing something different (like putting their breakbeat library on cassette tape)

Check it out:

Now it’s not meant to be a super sophisticated drum machine, they did it as a novelty audio device intended toย spark some fun and creativity…who knows what they’ll end up doing in the future.

It’s also a hackable device so you can go in and even load up your own sounds if you wish to hack it, though it’s not a sampler, you can switch out the sounds in there with some hacking.

You can grab it from their website for $99, and includes a free copy of The Sammich Kit 4

Don’t foget to use the code SoundsAndGear to get 10% off any purchases on their site.

  1. Cool device.

    This is right up a hobbyist alley, but I don’t know about that price though. I’d be more tempted to buy a raspberry pi. A lot more bang and fun for the buck.

    With that being said, at $99 I think 3 modules should be included.

  2. That little thing for $99?! It’s cute, but I don’t know if I’d spend more than $20 on it – because it looks like a toy more than anything. A much better alternative in my opinion, is the BeatBuddy (their site is http://www.mybeatbuddy.com check it out). While it definitely IS more expensive than this contraption (I pre-ordered one for like $250, now I think it’s higher), it is totally worth it. When you hear samples of that BeatBuddy, you will thank me haha. Ya’ll welcome lol

    • Yes, it’s a toy/novelty item really, nothing meant to be a major piece of audio equipment. I understand the price given they are a small company trying to put out something with their own branding on it. This is more for those that are fans of the brand, not someone looking for a powerful drum machine ๐Ÿ™‚
