Looks like a Roland TR909 ... ( or a Roland MSQ ), more likely a TR909.

I thought it was a tr-909 also but it isn't. There isn't a memory card slot on the rear of it to be a 909. You got me guessing...

there was a thread about this a while ago... i think it was discovered to be a SMPTE device or some chit, cant remember though... do a search of threads with Premier/primo/pic in it, im sure you can find it easy enough... lots of cats had guesses but someone posted a pic of what it really was...

I've just downloaded the manual so I can see what it does....

Outline of the SBX-80
The Roland SEX-80 is a programmable tempo controller that can be effectively used to control the tempo of sequencers or rhythm machines. This is compatible with almost all rhythm machines and sequencers that have external sync input jacks.

There are three main methods of sync's with the SEX80

1. Sync'ing the sequencers and rhythm machines in the tempo set in the SBX80. There are three different ways of setting the tempo in the SBX-80: one is with the Tempo Control Knob, and the others are by tapping the Tap Button, and by the external click signal.

2 Playing the sequencers and rhythm machines in the tempo recorded in the SBX-80. Tempo can be programmed in each beat. By tapping the Tap Button or playing to the click signal in real time, and more, by entering a tempo value in each beat by using the Ten Keys. This unique tempo programming function enables extremely realistic performance of sequencers and rhythm machines.

3. Sync'ing rhythm machines and sequencers to the VTR Video Tape Recorder) or MTR (Multi Track Recorder). The VTR and MTR for professional use adopt SMPTE time code with which sequencers and rhythm machines can be synchronized. If tempo is programmed as described in 2, sequencers and rhythm machines are ready to sync with the SMPTE time code.
Also, if tempo is programmed to the recorded music or picture, by tapping or by using click signal, the sequencers and rhythm machines can sync with the music or picture.
Even if the SMPTE time code is not written on the tape, you can write it using the SMPTE Time Code Generator provided in the SBX80. One more advantage of the sync by SMPTE time code is that even the sync from the middle of the music can be successfully done.

Nah, look at the side of it, might be a different revision with different side panels, but it doesn;t match so well. maybe a reverb controller or a remote for a tape machine or other recording system.

Believe me it's a Roland SBX80, the studio pic is too bright to notice the 'holes' on the side.
Also check this threadand read Analog Warriors's post.
