The Korg DDD-1 was dope.

I had a Yamaha RX-8 that had some nice sounds. Agreed, I got one with the sample board and a few cards. I love the snares you can get from this thing. They make a good midi controler too.

I just sold an SP-1200. I still have my SP-12. I do have a Linn Drum like the one in the picture. It needs reparing though. I'm looking for a Linn 9000 myself. The Linn 9000 was the predecessor to the MPC series.

Sorry, I didn't wanna confuse that "Dr. Rhythm" with THIS "Dr. Rhythm", the 220...

or this...

I hated these. They were both PCM sample-based. Cain't do a thang with 'em. Unless one likes the sounds.

NOW THIS IS MY KIND OF POST!!!

I still want to get a DR-110 but I don't think it has midi or dinsync. :(

I might get it for the sounds anyway.

Hey JMJ, i'm going to go to your house and steal you 808. ;)

-s Nope, it doesn't have either, BUT there's supposed to be a sync mod floating around somewhere. Also, you can mod the cirucits for kick, snare and I think cymbal. You can tune/stretch the kick and do a tone/snappy mod for the snare.

Find one on ebay, I got 2 for about $60 a piece.

03-25-2003, 12:25 PM
hmm.....

Do you know of any links that'll show you how to mod them???

Skillz, it seemed like every other rap record in the mid-80s was backed by the DMX...i love especially the rimshot sound it creates...

Martin, i really like the Studio-B site...they had a video clip of Deja/Aurra performing...and speaking of vintage drum machines, which software has simulations of Linns and Oberheims? i'd be interested to know...

catch you both soon and have a good one!

the msq graemlins/jpshakehead.gif so big for what it does, but it does look cool tho. people always ask me about it. cheap as hell too (shipping was expensive). tell us about your simmons. is it like the sds-200 (no sequencing but lots of knobs)? i considered getting a sds-400 but had nothing to trigger the other two channels with.

Here is a pic of a very rare drum machine I have, the RSF SD140:

It's from the French company RSF, best known for their highly collectable Kobol expander analog synth. This is a 14 bit sampler. It sounds very crusty smile.gif

It has no storage medium except for cassette dumps.

RSF (Ruben and Serge Fernandez) was a small French synth company in the late 70s/early 80s. They put out the Kobol synths and a few PCM drum machines. All of it is rare, but the SD140 was supposedly their last product, so there are very few of those.

The Kobol expander is the one to get though. It's a semi-modular, like a Korg MS-20 without the keyboard. It's very patchable, but also hardwired. The main distinguishing features are a wicked sounding filter and the ability to continuously sweep through all four waveform types (Sine, Triangle, Pulse, Sawtooth) with a knob or CV.

Oh and by the way, If any of you have an extra Linn Drum layin' around the house let me know. Me first!! But seriously I have been in the market for a Linn for a while now. I have been trying to go about the eBay route with no luck. These guys would cut their own mothers tits off for one. Maybe it is because you could pick one up for 100 to 400 dollars rather than 1000 dollars from Forat. I am not too good at the eBay thing. Not fast enough when it comes down to the wire. I am serious! If anyone has a Linn Drum machine for a resonable price,let me know!!! Peace.

Ok, I'm learning as I go along...

I made the mistake of buying an Alesis SR-16...needless to say, it SUX!!!

I need something better that gives me more control of the voices (filter, reverb, etc.) and a better sequencing function.

Any recommendations? Should I go with the newer stuff (ie, Boss DR-202) or something a little older like the impressive looking Linn?

So easy a protic can do it (QUAD)

I also recently got a Super Bass Station, it has a built in MIDI/CV converter so I can finally sequence my SH-09.

I need something better that gives me more control of the voices (filter, reverb, etc.) and a better sequencing function.

Any recommendations? Should I go with the newer stuff (ie, Boss DR-202) or something a little older like the impressive looking Linn? Trust me, you don't want a DR-202. I used to have one and it completly sucks.
If it's control you want, you might want to check out the Novation Drumstation, however it dosn't have filters. Actually, most drum machines don't have filters other than the MPC-2000, but that is more less a sampler.
What sequencer are you useing, if you don't have a master sequencer, the MPC might be the way to go.

That's the problem with the Linn9000.
A cool drum machine BUT not cheap to
to upgrade (OS) or repair.
http://www.forat.com/
I bought a version with the four sample memory (8 or 12 bit samples) the OS was old and the unit kept
overheating and crashing.
I was lucky to get my money back. The drum sounds are punchy and the sequencer is as tight as it gets way
better in feel to the MPC series.

I hated these. They were both PCM sample-based. Cain't do a thang with 'em. Unless one likes the sounds. [/QB]The 220E has electronic drum samples.
The quality of samples are not that great though, a bit dull and plastic.
You can sync a DR110 to a 220E (it has trig in/ out) have the snare "dufhhh" and "slap" going with the 808ish DR110 sounds.
The Cowbell on the 220E creates trigger pulses for the trogger out which is kind of fun making synthesizer blips on an old analog.

Don't forget the TOM. It was the machine used to obtain those pitch-ramping / detuning hats on 326 (Both Musique and D.Mania releases). It had the unique ability (at the time) to record individual hits reversed, and with individual hit pitch information.

I also believe that the TOM was the first ever digital machine, as well as the first to have midi as standard.

Not to everyone's taste, but I regret selling mine!

I stand corrected! Besides the reverse function, I seem to remember the TOM having some other claim to fame, anyone know what the innovation was?

Did the DRUMTRACKS also record pitch and velocity for each individual note?

Anyone ever tried blowing an eprom for a TOM or DRUMTRACKS?

Thanks for the link Alex!

Sequential were also the first company to implement multi-timbral operation; the story I heard was that NAMCO asked them for a chip for an arcade game that required multiple sounds simultaneously. NAMCO backed out on the deal after S.C had obtained thousands of chips, leaving them with the chips and no home. The MULTI-TRACK was the result and the rest is history!

The 626 is basically related to the TR-505 but with a lot more samples (latin percussion) simular to the 727.
Unlike the 505 it has swing mode and each button can be assigned a midi note with different velocity and played
in step/ tap/ pattern mode (707/727 Midi can only be played in Song mode).
Nifty if you have a percussion based module like a N. Drumstation or for arpeggio type stuff on a synth.
You can also tune each drum sound up and down I think six different ways.

What I didn't like about the 626 is the rhythm patterns seemed to be more loose than a 707/727.
The 727 seemed to have more warmth and rawness.
For the money your probably better off investing in a R8.

There is a short raw track on my server made with a TR-707 and Micromoog.
The synth parts sound strange because they are different samples form the Micrommog I archived on CD and multi-tracked in the mix.

I bought a MSQ700 which I gave to a friend for his TR-808.
The Midi drifts from the Din Sync using it with the 808 and also sounds a little warped when using the sequencer.
A wise man once told me you should avoid gear with early Midi implementation if possible.
For Din Sync purposes the N. Drumstation can be found cheap-reasonably priced these days even though the N.
Drumstation does not touch a real TR-808 also not as hot in the outputs.
I still like the Drumstation for it's unique hybrid nature.
