Division Department 01/IV Four Voice Analog Drum Synth

Published on Mar 9, 2020 Perfect Circuit

"The Division Department 01/IV is a distinctly open-ended drum synth, providing a clean slate for creating all sorts of analog percussion tones. With no on-board sequencing, 01/IV is more about classic percussive sound design, leaving the control choices up to the user, playable via the per-channel trigger buttons or external MIDI control.

Unlike many drum synths, 01/IV features four identical channels. Where other instruments might make distinctions between the purpose of each channel (kick, snare, etc.), 01/IV instead provides access to raw synthesis elements to allow users to sculpt their own tones, be they familiar or completely alien. Each voice provides a choice of sound source (triangle, saw, noise, hi-hat noise), filter type (lowpass, bandpass, highpass), and modulation controls, providing access to everything from classic analog drum tones to inter-voice FM.

By providing this open-ended approach to sound design on each of its four channels, the 01/IV can seamlessly morph from percussive to melodic roles, from intense FM to clean, rubbery toms, from understated rhythms to in-your-face blasts. And best of all, the one-knob-per-function interface and built-in trigger buttons make this a pleasure to play, encouraging real-time exploration in a way uncommon for modern drum machines.

"Scarce factory sound patches on cassette for the legendary Korg Trident mk.II. Real analogue goodness from the early 1980's!

As I have never used this cassette to restore sounds onto a Trident (I wish!), I cannot comment on the how well it works. I have played it through on each side and heard the expected screech of data, so I have no reason to think why it shouldn't work. Still, caveat emptor! The sounds appear three times on one side of the tape only, there is no 'B side.'

Dispatched in the UK with Royal Mail."
