30 years younger with baking soda - Servicing a Roland TR-909

In this video I service and clean my old TR-909, and I'll tell you the easy fix for 90% of the problems with a TR-909. It is the second time my TR-909 had this problem, and this time it repaired itself.

The classic Roland TR-909 needs no introduction, if you have heard of drum machines, you have heard of it and it's older sibling, the TR-808.
