I went for two classics: my Sequential Circuits Six-Trak, my EMU Drumulator, and two fairly recent machines: the Behringer RD9 (Roland TR-909 clone) & the Donner D1.
Picture is from my Korg KR-55 Pro which I didn't use, just to throw everybody off... The D1 is what I used for the breakbeat (it is a sample based drum machine).
I'll have to tackle soon a track with a lot more #drummachine

What I did there, was to record the 808 kick on one channel, the rest of the drums on a stereo pair with a ping pong delay, the bass chords under a ton of reverb and super long phaser on another channel, and finally the lead sounds on another stereo pair. The goal was to create the flows for the drums and the leads by proper timing of adjusting the volume sliders at mastering time down to stereo.

So I copied the windows vst folder to my linux wine vst3 folder, added the path to yabridge, ran sync and Carla sees the Full Bucket Music Drumtraqs plugin. It complains about it but it works. Other plugins I tried didn't work so far.
A native plugin would be best, but at least it works. I can use the real drumtraks, the windows or Mac plugin, or the windows plugin in linux. I think I got all base covered!

It was just a matter of time that a free vst would replicate the experience.
Full Bucket Music drumtraqs runs the z80 code and sticks close to the original functionality. Interface is pretty much a clone, but with a few extra buttons in the middle, to cover extra menu options. No options for alternate prom sets, afaik.

40 years ago⦠The Sequential Circuits Drumtraks offered a MIDI drum machine that could have up to 99 songs and 99 patterns, had individual outputs and had accent and tuning. Well built, 40 years later, mine still works fine.

@openmastering This track was released after 1 year of pain and multiples surgeries. The end of a cycle and the start of a new life.
I was trying to make people understand the hardships I've been through. An outlet !
#Linux with #Ardour, #Guitarix (#pacifica), some hardware synths (#d50, #microbrute and a #wavestation) and some samples (#drumtraks, #espeak for the vocal synthesis and samples from #freesound.org). I like the eighties sound π
