The risers used in this #music #track are #tr909 cymbals, reversed. The only samples i used for this track, but technically that is not 100% correct:
First, the cymbals on the 909 are samples. Roland couldnt get realistic cymbal sounds out of analog circuits (808 cymbals, anyone? As an aside, check out https://pureadmin.qub.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/125044847/tr_808_cymbal_a_physically_informed_circuit_bendable_digital.pdf) so they used samples. The #drumulator & #sequentialcircuits #drumtraks also use eprom based samples, & i use a few custom eproms in them (with ZIF sockets). #jam #jamuary

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.

The sound samples were stored on EPROMs. To make the swap easier for kick and snare, i had installed ZIF sockets. With the lid on hinges, that made things real easy.

@rekkerd he also has a Six-Trak plugin. Also free. On the downside, still no #linux version of any of his plugins. #sequentialcircuits #sci #Sixtrak #drumtraks
