ROLAND PA.120 SPRING REVERB MIXER
8 channel spring reverb PA mixer - serviced - great looks and sound.
These 70s Roland mixers sound great, especially when you overdrive the inputs - can really add punch to DAW beats and synths and have a superb built-in spring reverb (equivalent to the RE-201 spring). We've been getting lots of positive feedback from customers using them to add texture and colour to drum machines, synths etc. Check the stock list on our site for more models and our Instagram feed for regular demos featuring similar models to this.
This unit is mono in operation. Has the advantage over some later models in that the internal spring reverb and external effect send can be applied simultaneously to each channel (however the downside is you can't apply spring to one while you apply echo to another at the same time).
Condition is good with some signs of age but nothing serious - see detailed photos for more information. Note that it has some stickers at the tops of the channels which we feel add to the character of the unit (they can no doubt be removed with the correct compound but it could be time-consuming for a relatively low-value unit).
It is a 100v Japanese model and will run fine on North American mains 115/120v without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use.
A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU.
The power output of the transformer required will depend on whether you intend to use the mixer to drive speakers or not (most people using it as a studio effect do not).
