"Linn LM-1 drum machine, serial # 365. These are relatively rare, as only approximately 500+ were ever built. This model was the first commercially-available EPROM-based digital drum machine with 8-bit sampled sounds.

While this is a digital drum machine that uses 8-bit EPROM based samples run through companding DACs, nothing really sounds like the LM-1. The snare and bass have a very solid fat sound, and the hi-hat is very unique: the hat sample is constantly running, and the difference between the open and closed sounds is merely a long or short analog envelope applied to the sample output, respectively.

DT-TV: D.Ramirez's Gear Review #1 - DSI Prophet '08

DT-TV: D.Ramirez's Gear Review #1 from Ben Gomori on Vimeo.

"We're proud to present the first in a new series of occasional production gear reviews from none other than D. Ramirez, one of the UK's finest house and tech producers and DJs. He asked us if he could send us a load of videos of him fiddling about with sexy new kit - and so here we are.

The first episode sees him get his hands on the new DSI Prophet 8 keyboard synth - especially interesting for those producers out there who have never seen an outboard synth working up close."

iPhone control of Alpha Juno

YouTube via kosmotikshokk. Think iPad.
"I'm controlling my Alpha Juno with the TouchOSC iPhone app, connected to puredata on my computer via the standard OSC protocol. This pd patch will work with the Juno 1 or 2, or the MKS-50 rack version. The same principle could be applied to any synthesizer with MIDI control.
