In this extensive interview by YouTuber Shane Flemming from roughly 2019, DJ Rod talks about the early days of Memphis production, and how DJ Fela was generous with his production skills and gear. At the roughly 4:40 mark:

It was me, KE, and DJ Pinky... we were like the main spearheads of production over at [Fela's] house. It was either I'm doin' the beats, KE was doin' the beats or Pinky was doing the beats... AND Fela. All four of us were the ones that used that Roland 660 [...] when we'd use that thing we'd take turns making beats...

Note: There is no "Roland" 660, but Boss is just a subsidiary of Roland, so calling the Boss 660 the "Roland" 660 isn't exactly incorrect.

Enjoy this very NSFW 1994 tape from DJ Fela + DJ Rod that may or may not utilize the DR-660.

Also also also: I have no idea who the artist "KE" is (or "Keith One/Warren"?) that they keep mentioning in the interview, if anyone has any ideas on that one, go ahead and @me right there in the posting comments.
