SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS TOM - 8-bit vintage drum machine 1985


YouTube via AnalogAudio1
"The Sequential (Circuits) TOM is a great drum machine - similar to the SCI Drumtraks. Also it could be the little brother of the Studio 440. It has a decent MIDI implementation and understands MIDI SysEx. The TOM's memory contains 8 samples; inserting a sound cartridge, you can have 7 additional samples. The crispy 8-bit samples sound great. In this video you will hear the following cartridges: "basic percussion", "special effects", "latin percussion" and "contemporary"."

  1. my favorite part of this drum machine is the reversible samples and the fact that you can really change the pitch of the samples across a wide range and on the fly - on the toms with a repeating beat you can simulate having 16 tuned toms in a row for some nice effects
