"Demonstrating new snare and bass drum prototypes. Four years of studying Roland schematics and thinking about the physics of real drums has yielded some detailed and flexible all-analog models. Selected elements of Roland TR-606 and TR-808 are combined with a clarified philosophy on the transfer of resonant energy from drumstick/beater to vibrating drumhead. All harmonic oscillations are generated with high-Q bandpass filters, as opposed to the triangle VCO/EG/VCA design utilized in lots of cheezy drum synthesizers that just go 'PYOO-PYOO!'... bleh. You know the type.

DIY-savvy types are invited to check out the Andromeda Mk-1, Mk-2, Mk-3, Mk-4 minimal drum synthesizer kits available thru my site, ericarcher.net

A Hewlett Packard 8018A Serial Data Generator was used for sequencing in this video."
