Pearl Fightman Analog Drum Synth Demo
YouTube Uploaded by zibbybone on Jun 17, 2011
"Just picked this guy up the other day. The 'skinned' drum sounds (kick, snare and toms) are not the greatest sounding, but I do think the cymbals (hat, ride and crash) are interesting. Interfacing the synth is interesting: there are 2 sets of cables (1 for drums and 1 for cymbals) that plug into the top rear which would then (normally) go to drum pads (with RCA phono jacks). I'm using my trusty Analogue Solutions Europa sequencer to program a simple pattern. Since the Europa only has 7 trigger outs, I elected to leave out the low rack tom since the high rack and floor tom would have the widest stereo seperation. There is also a cable for closing the hi hat and I have no way to interface that (maybe someday I'll find a deal on a SDS6). After getting every sound into the pattern, I then tweak the tuning and decay on individual sounds. This unit does not have individual outs, only a stereo output. I forgot to demonstrate the built-in metronome, but there's really nothing special about it."
