WeAreAmpify: We got a TR-909!

Published on Sep 9, 2018 WeAreAmpify

"Happy 909 day! Pete left London to visit Seb who luckily had a Roland TR-909 Rhythm Composer sat in his flat courtesy of Novation & Focusrite. Even 35 years on, this iconic piece of hardware still sounds impressive.

[Roland 909 Day Demo] Juno-1 / TR-8 / RE-20 / 101-VCF / JP6-VCF

Published on Sep 9, 2018 gstormelectro

"Audio and Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2018

Today a special setup for 909 Day!
Featuring some classic Roland circuits.
The highly underrated Alpha Juno-1 on pads and leads.
Getting a dose of cloudy reverb from Strymon Big Sky.
A TR-8 deploying the 909 kit in floor-thumping action.
Smashed to extra crunchy bits in the DBX 166A compressor/limiter.
My RE-20 Space Echo pedal on delay.
The 101-VCF has its input overdriven by Pittsburgh Synthesizer Box.
And the Rozendal CEM3340 VCO going into the JP6-VCF.
Having its resonant arse kicked around my Spring Tank Reverb.
Beatstep Pro on sequencing duty.

Some audio post-processing in Cubase 7."

Din Sync RE-808 to be Open Source

via Paul Barker, the man behind Din Sync.

"It’s funny to announce this on 909 day but it’s important news. As many of you know we plan to make the RE-808, however the news we bring today about the project is that once the circuit boards are ready we will release the gerber files for them directly under an open source license. This seems to be the best model for the project under the current circumstances. The 808 deserves a decent legacy for the 21st century and this will be it. #909day #re808 #authentic808forall"
