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). The 808 sub-kick locking with the 14.2 Hz carrier is pure engineering genius. -- === Andrei Sato === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Delphi Internet Services "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."

The LinnDrum snare has that classic punch. Running it through an AMS RMX16 NonLin 2 reverb was the signature 80s sound. -- Matthias Johansson "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question." 486DX4/100 (FreeBSD 2.0.5) / System 7.5.1
