Roland SBX-1 Sync Box

Multi-format Sync for Computers and Electronic Instruments

The SBX-1 lets computers and electronic instruments communicate and synchronize with each other. It supports a vast array of both analog and digital devices through DIN SYNC, MIDI and USB, and any of these can be the master clock source. You can use the SBX-1 itself as the master sync and control your external devices with its rock-steady internal clock. With hands-on control over timing and groove, and support for CV/GATE, the SBX-1 is far from just an ordinary sync box.

• Simultaneous conversion between MIDI, DIN SYNC, and USB/MIDI
• Control external devices with SBX-1 as the master sync source
• Shuffle adds swing to patterns generated on devices without swing, such as TR-808 and TB-303
• CV/GATE jacks introduce enormous creative possibilities
• SYNC button corrects timing errors with a single press
• Output up to three channels of triggers or LFOs with different characteristics
• DIN SYNC supports both Sync24 and Sync48 compatible with a variety of rhythm machines
• Works great with the TR-8 through optimized AUX jack
• Runs on USB bus power or with AC adapter
