Description : One would think that all of the autokomp machines sound the same but this one proves the opposite. This drummachine sounds exactly like a toy steam engine making it´s way around the track letting of steam to the wonderful rhythms Mambo, Cha cha & western. If that is a good thing or not is up for discussion I guess...

Soundwise it is pretty odd….A lot of ” snare ” and not a lot of ” bass drum ”.

I haven´t used it that much. It is the main rhythm part on the track ” a little sign ” with Two times the trauma though.
