Title link takes you to shots via this auction."It's 5 channels each one with a trigger in and direct out gives you some pretty nice 80's electronic drum sounds kraftwerk, new order kind of sounds come to mind as well as techno, trance, dance style sounds from the roland tr909. each of the 5 channels has a nob control for sensitivity, oscillator decay, noise decay, sweep, pitch with a cilck button on/off, balance (osc - noise), volume, and pan l-r. Unit also has a main left and right out each with a volume nob. The trigger cords are in new shape. I have never used them they still have the velcro tape on them. (i used roland trigger pads with the drumfire). All 5 triggers work. I just tested them by plugging them in and tapping on them . They are more sensitive than my roland pads. Comes with original box and some stickers, the five 1/4 inch trigger cords, and the unit itself."
I spotted one of these in Pan Sonic's rig ages ago. They were using the outs from their 808 to trigger its sounds.
ReplyDeletei love the drum fire, very unique and crunchy sound, and lots of fun to chain the channels together on the DF-500. The 2-channel rack DF-2000 is a bit more flexible with a noise filter and waveshape control.
ReplyDeleteI just dug up a demo I did from 2001 and put it up temporarily on virb.com:
the only encoding I found of it was a 160kbps, which isn't great but here it is anyway:

I think this was only the Drumfire and Metasonix Hellfire just live tweaking.
