"This week, Ruin brings you the beginning of a series of blogs about modding the Korg KPR-77 into a badass TR-606/808 killer.
When I first came into contact with this drum machine, I noticed several things about it that were severely lacking. First of which being the bass drum. When I heard that damn bass drum, I thought of someone punching a cardboard box. That thing has too short of decay, and the pitch is too high for my taste. On top of that, there is not much punch to the drum. All of this adds up to a severely anorexic kick drum. When half your time with a song is spent tweaking the sounds, this kick drum can really get you down.
This is probably the hardest set of mods to perform on the KPR-77 in this series, but as you will see, it is still extremely easy to perform." You'll find more details on the Ruin & Wesen blog here.
