"The DRM1 MKIII is an analogue drum synthesizer.

It offers eight instruments, each with seven knobs for forming the sound plus a panorama- and a volume-controller. The user interface is absolutely clear and intutitve - one knob, one function.

The instruments on the DRM1 MKII are as following:

KICK
Mainly but not only for making big and fat kick drums
DRUM1 and DRUM2
Very flexible instruments that can generate kick- and tom sounds a s well as bongos. Anything from zapp to bling and fantastic PIUU...
MULTI
Three oscillators can be detuned and gives you nice cowbell-like sounds. If you like submarines you can create a nice sonar ping.

SNARE
What can we say about that? Well, you get what you expect.
Hi Hat1 and Hi Hat2
That's analogue (heavy- or soft-) metal.
CLAP
Classic analogue hand claps.

Control Features and Connections:

· MASTER: Sets the main output level of the DRM1 Mk III
· TRIG: Button for triggering the sound.
· TRIG LED: Flashes when the sound is triggered

· SOUND: Programming parameter controls
· PAN: Places the sound in the stereo field
· VOLUME: Individual volume control for each channel
· OUT: Individual output/insert jack
· PHONES: Jack for connecting a headphone
· OUT RIGHT/OUT LEFT: Master output right and left
· MIDI THRU/MIDI IN: MIDI jacks for connecting a MIDI source and for putting the MIDI signal through the DRM1 Mk III

· POWER IN: Power jack with integrated fuse

The instruments of the DRM1 MKIII can be triggered by MIDI (of course velocity-sensitive). Beside the main outputs each channel is equipped with an individual output that also can be used as an channel insert."

M-Z3R0 - diy midi controlled drum machine progress II.. (with pss30 drone synth)

Published on Nov 1, 2012 by manufacturedZ3R0

"Midi retrofit on a yamaha dd8 running through one of my circuit bent yamaha pss30 digital/analogue drone synths.

Made a fair bit of progress on the midi circuit. Added a hex inverter to get the note on messages to trigger the drums as opposed to the note off of the first try (a side effect of the dd8's own circuitry which meant having to use 64ths and shift everything back by 1/64 to sync it perfectly to the bpm click). Ironed out misfire/machinegun trigger flaws with dc blocking caps and tidied the whole thing up a bit. I'm moving surprisingly fast on this new path and so far the learning curve and progress made have been relatively painless."

COTK C958 Dual Quantizer Settings

Published on Nov 1, 2012 by AudioCentralMagazine

"While using the same board developed by Dieter Doepfer for his Euro Rack Dual Quantizer, the COTK C958 is a nice addition to 5U modular format. On this video, a slow ramp LFO wave is quantized with the different quantizing options available in the module; gating of the envelope is on the quantized event, so the chromatic (all) quantizing is "fastest" than the more simple I - V quantization."
