Godwin Drummaker 45 Computer System - All Rhythm Presets - Italian Classic Drum Machine

video upload by percussionologist

"A short video demonstrating the preset drum rhythms from the fantastic Italian Godwin Drummaker 45 Drum Machine from the late 1970s.

This fully analog machine has some of the nicest sounding drum sounds going. Punchy, deep, clear, hypnotic sounds. With excellent rhythm patterns to go along with them.

Each of the preset rhythm patterns cycle through three rhythm variations.

This machine also has a fantastic chord / bass / three voice arpeggiator, which can be played with a foot pedal controller or mini keyboard (like a three note poly synth) and choosing combinations of voices and patterns to go along with the rhythms can create a huge number of variations. The accompaniment side of the machine is not demonstrated in this video. I hope to show it in a subsequent video."

And here it is:

"Short demonstration of the Godwin Drummaker 45 Computer System - Drum Machine / Bass / Chord / Arpeggiator unit.

Made in Italy, late 1970s.

Very nice machine. Fully analog sound generation. Chords can be played using the bass foot pedals or small keyboard, both of which were available as an option when new.

Cheers :)"
