via Hey, what's that sound on the guardian.uk (click through for the full article). via The Museum of Techno on Twitter (http://twitter.com/museumoftechno)"What are they? The first drum machines to feature digital sampling. Before the release of Linn's LM-1 Drum Computer in 1980, early drum machines could only synthesise drum sounds out of bursts of white noise or sine waves. The LM-1 and Oberheim's DMX sampled actual drum hits, which could be programmed and manipulated with lovely knobs."
