"In this video, radiokoala -- among the first in the world maybe, -- explores sequencing monotribe with the CV/gate, a possibility added in the last 2.11 firmware.
However, instead of feeding the little metal box with yet one boring note pattern, the guy decides to take it one step further and sends monotribe output of his analogue oscillator Sputnik Dual Waveform Generator.
What actually happens is Osc 1 sends gate signal, and Osc 2 provides CV data. In other words, monotribe's internal VCO is frequency-modulated by DWG. (Which makes it sound more interesting, as you will hear.) Both CVs do not affect the drum track in any way, however a synth part is fully sequenced with a Sputnik oscillator.
Additionally, radiokoala not only jams with a patch he created, but also demonstrates how monotribe sounds with and without modulation via CV. Overall man's opinion is, addition of a CV/gate does really breathe a new life to monotribe -- this mode really ain't nothing other but a perennial spring of fun!"
"This is a side by side comparison of the same patterns playing on a Delptronics LDB-1, a Roland TR-606, and a Roland TR-808. All three use analog circuitry (no samples). The 606 circuitry is a simpler version of the 808, and the LDB-1 is simpler still. They all sound great, just a little different. Of course the prices are different too - a new LDB-1 is $240, a used 606 is $450 or more, and a used 808 is around $3,400 (and rising).
No effects were used. The volumes of each instrument were turned all the way up, except the 808 rim shot which is really loud at full volume. The LDB-1 and TR-606 do not have tuning per instrument. On the 808, the tuning of each instrument was set in the middle, except for the kick, which was set as low as it goes - because that's where everyone sets it. :)
