    Description

    Sequencer is in "good" condition for it years.
    As seen in the pictures is a VERY LOW Serial Number 86.
    This unit belonged to Patrick Moraz of the bands "YES" and "The Moody Blues"
    It was given to me during the time I worked with him 25ish years ago.
    He is also pictured on the original Manual Art.
    Possible Information about the Twin Gate BUS MOD. From a Reverb user.
    Musicaid was the company that came out with the Claptrap and eventually became Simmons Drums.
    On a normal ARP sequencer, the black switches assign the gate signals to channels 1, 2, or 3. I would assume based on the name "twin gate" that the switch, when switched to the on position, simultaneously sends the same gate signal out of channel 2 as it does channel 1, allowing for more complex sequences.
    I have no way to "FULLY" test the device anymore.
    It powers on and I can step through the sequence.
    Some of the slider caps need replacement and can be purchased on another ebay auction for 5 euro ea.
    One of the Twin Gate switches needed replacing so I replaced all 16 of them.
    Those switches for your information  - SPDT UP-DOWN-UP ; 3 position Switches
