ELEKTRON Machine

sps 1 uw

The TR-707 drum machine from ROLAND, released in 1985, is practical in the studio or on stage and economical compared to a TR-808. Separate outputs allow you to mix and add effects per channel. This machine is modern: a liquid crystal display allows you to compose the rhythms easily and visually, unlike other machines. It is equipped with a MIDI interface. A CV sync output in mini-jack format is possible. You need a mini-jack to 6.5 jack cable if you want to trigger a modular or a synth or arpeggiator in 6.5 format, such as a Roland Juno 60. A recognized sound of electro artists: the Cow Bell of the TR-707! Simple and effective. We like or dislike the sound of this electronic drum set, the queen machine of the House and Pop of the 1980s, precursor of the Chicago House. They loved it or still do: for example by Laurent Garnier, Chemical Brothers, DJ Pierre, Arnaud Rebotini, J-Zbel, Mr Fingers, Minimum Violence, or Legowelt.

Analog power... easy to use. The DrumBrute integrates 17 analog percussion and drum instruments, including 2 kicks, snare, clap, open and closed hi-hat, high/low toms and congas, maracas, rimshot, clave, tambourine, zap, cymbal, and even an inverted cymbal. The 17 analog instruments have multiple independent parameters that can be changed to achieve the perfect sound. Combined with this, a Steiner-Parker output filter (2 modes) allows you to add dynamic frequency sweeps and powerful bass drops. Despite the performance and power of this machine, achieving the perfect beat is still extremely simple and fast. Each function has its own dedicated knob, pot or pad. So you'll spend less time navigating menus and submenus and more time composing. Fans of old-fashioned drum machines will feel right at home with its familiar layout. Infinite creation. DrumBrute is packed with a wealth of advanced features that will satisfy even the most demanding musicians and producers. Lay down your groove with the Swing feature, get inspired when composing with the Randomness mode, expand your beat with the Step Repeat, Roller and Looper features, add a little punch to your rhythm by accentuating a particular element. Compose endlessly. On the sequencer side, each of the DrumBrute's 64 sequences can contain up to 64 steps, and can be chained together in Song Mode. The DrumBrute also has extensive connectivity and synchronization options, including Midi, clock, 1PPS, 2PPQ, DIN24 and DIN48. This means that the DrumBrute will work perfectly with all your other modular instruments, synths, and sequencers. Equally at home in the studio or on stage.
