Built around a white noise circuit similar to the legendary Roland TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines, the HC-2 provides dedicated, hands-on control over your clap sounds. It features an integrated touch-sensitive rubber trigger pad that can be played by hand or with drumsticks, alongside controls for sensitivity, dry tone filtering, and reverberation tail length. In addition to manual pad triggering, a 1\/4\" trigger input jack allows it to be synced directly with drum machines or sequencers such as the Roland TR-606 or Boss DR-55, making it a highly desirable collector's piece and studio tool for synth enthusiasts and electronic producers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVintage 1980s analogue hand clap synthesizer (Made in Japan)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnalogue circuit based on classic Roland 808\/909-style white noise synthesis\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated touch-sensitive rubber trigger pad for manual play\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSens control to adjust pad strike responsiveness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDry control to adjust the brightness and tone of the initial clap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHall control to adjust the length and decay of the reverberation tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4\" Trigger Input for external clock\/gate pulse triggering from drum machines and sequencers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSturdy metal enclosure with classic vintage Boss styling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolyphony: Monophonic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eControls: Sens, Dry, Hall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInputs: 1 x 1\/4\" Trigger In\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutputs: 1 x 1\/4\" Audio Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower Supply: 9V DC Centre Negative power supply or 9V Battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCountry of Manufacture: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProduction Years: 1984 – 1985\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48033537130661,"sku":"HC-2-1","price":130.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/8491\/7157\/files\/3A2A3318-3D00-4BEB-BEAE-5B0C91E4AA0C.jpg?v=1784719348","url":"https:\/\/musicvault.co.uk\/products\/boss-hc-2-hand-clapper-vintage-analogue-percussion-synthesiser-made-in-japan-pre-owned","provider":"Music Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
