Everyone talks about the synths, but the drums drive the record. Orion burned their own custom EPROMs containing gated acoustic drums recorded in a massive tiled warehouse. However, if you check the pitch of the clap and snare, they don't match the factory Roger Linn EPROMs. Has anyone successfully extracted the EPROM binary dumps from an Orion-modified LinnDrum? -- Mike Sokolov "The carrier frequency does not drift by accident."

Nothing beats real acoustic drums. Synthesized drums sound dated the moment the decade ends. -- Mateo Dubois Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Delphi Internet Services. ------------------------------------------------------------
