Vermona DRM1 MKIII Analog Drum Synth

via Noisebug on eBay
"The DRM1 MKIII is an eight-channel, completely analog drum synthesizer. It gives you total control over every parameter through its 72 controls.

The new version has following changes:
- KICK channel instead of the DRUM1 channel. The Kick channel has some different parameters and can create fatter and deeper kick sounds.
- The DRUM channels have a WAVE parameter which transforms the oscillator's waveform from sine to square
- The oscillators of the DRUM channels will be started with each trig signal.

The DRM1 Mk III is a flexible 8-channel drum synthesizer, which gives you the ability to create your own sounds, as well as many other classic analog drum sounds. Every sound parameter of the DRM1 Mk III has its own controller, so its easy to use and you'll always have a clear picture of the settings.

Features
Control Features and Connections:

· MASTER: Sets the main output level of the DRM1 Mk III

· TRIG: Button for triggering the sound.

· TRIG LED: Flashes when the sound is triggered

· SOUND: Programming parameter controls

· PAN: Places the sound in the stereo field

· VOLUME: Individual volume control for each channel

· OUT: Individual output/insert jack

· PHONES: Jack for connecting a headphone

· OUT RIGHT/OUT LEFT: Master output right and left

· MIDI THRU/MIDI IN: MIDI jacks for connecting a MIDI source and for putting the MIDI signal through the DRM1 Mk III

· POWER IN: Power jack with integrated fuse"

Rare Vermona DRM


via this auction

"Released in 1987 by a German synthesizer company named Vermona.

It is the European answer to ROLAND's TR-X0X and CR-XXXX drum machines. Manual (in German) is here: Vermona_DRM_Manual.pdf (3.9 MB) The machine has a EU 220V plug, powers up, the sequencer works, and sounds with that analog sound of the eighties, sooo awesome for collectors or musicians.

SEQUENCER:
First of all it offers a 32 step TR style sequencer. It is as simple to use as the roland machines. It has 16 preset patterns and allows you to store 10 of your own. There is even support to chain patterns together, change pattern length, change time signature between 4/4 and 3/4. The unit is MIDI syncable, it will respond to midi clock, start and stop messages. It will also respond to MIDI note data allowing you to sequence the analog voices from any external piece of midi gear. It also transmits midi data as well allowing you to use it as your master clock source.

Alongside your preset and standard patterns you have fill mode, where the drum machine will play a drum fill. The ability to have just the bass drum playing. Flam is also available for the Toms. In addition to the analog voice control their is a separate sequence for a trigger out, and 2 bizarre time signature sequences which can also be used as trigger outs...

There are 11 completely analog voices on this machine. The timbre of each voice cannot be modified.

Bass Drum - Nothing like an 808 or 909. Very simple oscillator design with transient click. But great for electro/minimal pulsing bass drum.
Low Tom - The toms are all pitch varients of each other, with separate circuits. They sound nothing like real toms, something like a 606 tom.
Mid Tom - Great for melodic rhythmic patterns.
Claves - Sounds exactly like an 808 clave to me.
Cowbell - AWESOME sounding FM synthesis based cowbell. Uses 4 oscillators to create a very convincing tone.
Snare 1 - Filtered noise ciruit snare. Sounds great.
Snare 2 - Similar to snare 1 with less punch.
Clap - Incredibly modern sounding hand clap. Short, no reverb. Nothing like a TR clap.
Closed High Hat - The high hats sound very similar to the VERMONA DRM MK3 high hats. Probably based on the same noise circuit.
Open High Hat - Similar to a cr-8000 but very metallic sounding

MORE FEATURES:
There are 10 volume sliders to control each grouping of sounds. A master slider for volume. A slider of accent.

The back of the unit features LEFT and RIGHT audio outputs, whereby each instrument is panned by a preset amount. Also features a Headphone out. A dedicated Trigger out and 4 foot pedal inputs to control program change, start/stop, fill and bassdrum removal.

There is an odd european style input port on the back which gives you access to each AUDIO OUT of each instrument. Also each TRIGGER out of each instrument. A dedicated TRIGGER out. And 2 addition rhythm Triggers."

"Midi In
Midi Thru
Sync Out

It has an Australian plug on it but can be swapped out for other counties 240v plugs if needed.

It might just be that this is totally redundant but it is a piece of synth history and is worth keeping in the community rather than landfill.

It's case is made of plastic and perspex and show quite a few scratches as it was used in many great machine driven gigs and gave lots of people pleasure so it wears a few scars."

TAMA DS200 VINTAGE ANALOG DRUM SYNTHESIZER

via this auction

"Awesome way to get vintage sounds into your rig for cheap. Super rare but still doesn't go for crazy collector money yet. Basically two seperate sine wave oscillators with controls. From the 70s, pre-techstar and sounds much warmer and has way more bite than the later Techstar line. Can make great disco sounds but also gets shrill as hell. Rumoured to be used often by Wolf Eyes. Perfect functional shape, fantastic cosmetic shape for something over 30 and almost 40 years old..."
