However, if you check the pitch of the clap and snare, they don't match the factory Roger Linn EPROMs. Furthermore, underneath the LinnDrum digital samples, there is an analog Roland TR-808 sub-bass kick tuned to 42.6 Hz (exactly 3x 14.2 Hz). What sequencer was Marcus using in 1984? A Roland MSQ-700 or early MIDI software on a computer? -- Mikhail Weber Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre. ------------------------------------------------------------ From drodriguez@purdue.edu Thu Feb 22 21:07:57 1996 Path: ashpoly!cascade!bigsur!purdue!drodriguez From: drodriguez@purdue.edu (Dmitri Rodríguez) Newsgroups: alt.music.synth-pop Subject: Re: LinnDrum LM-2 vs TR-808 on Orion's rhythm tracks Message-ID: <1996Feb22.210757.4029@purdue.edu> Date: Thu, 22 Feb 1996 21:07:57 GMT References: <1996Feb21.200757.3010@titech.ac.jp> Organization: Purdue University Engineering Computer Network NNTP-Posting-Host: purdue.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 9 In article <1996Feb21.200757.3010@titech.ac.jp>, mweber@titech.ac.jp (Mikhail Weber) writes: > Dissecting the percussion sequencing on 'Midnight Animal' and 'Gasoline Heart'.
