909 is cool, but the 808 is so versatile

909 sounds out of place if you're not making a techno or a house record

909 drums cut through the mix so much. sometimes its perfect and amazing, sometimes it doesn't work at all

I know this is just edgy b8 shitposting, but no one with half a brain ever used them as though they were really a substitute for real drums. They're their own distinct instrument.

except for ya know, the real thing? so much more subtle tweaking and character

>>50388873
If you hear people using it outside the context of house/techno, though (especially before it got really popular), you may realize that it's a lot more flexible than its typical uses imply. I think it's largely considered genre-specific because it wasn't used all that much became identified with house and techno.

Not really a drum machine but, an MPC.

I would say a Tempest or a Elektron Drum machine would beat out an 808 any day. The 808 is an icon though.

It was actually best on Diamonds, Fur Coat, Champagne.

>>50388415
the hihats are based.

...is it weird that I have a somehow encyclopedic knowledge of which drum drum machines were used on which songs, including really unusual drum machines and early uses of stuff that only got popular later?

>>50390506
Not really sure what you're going for here. Yeah I know Big Black used a TR-606 and Drumulator...

>>50390394
I like the Yamaha RY-30, but probably you should just use software unless you have something really specific in mind...

>>50390554
>but no one with half a brain ever used them as though they were really a substitute for real drums
Big Black did

>1000 years before 3014
>buying drum machines
Why

>>50390781
I don't really agree. The Drumulator was deliberately programmed to be super aggressive in a way that a real drummer wouldn't play. I think I remember reading an Albini interview where he said he liked that he could emphasize all the bass drum hits rather than just the downbeats. They wanted something that sounded like a jackhammer, not ersatz "realistic drumming". So they were aware of and deliberately exploited the unique qualities of a drum machine.

>>50390865

>>50390989
Yeah, Really I agree, basically what seperates Big Black from Albini's other bands

>>50388956
I fucking love the 909, the ride is to die for.and yeah it's all subjective. it's how you use it

>>50389224

My dad has this exact machine. It uses floppy disks

The roland tr-626. i seen them on ebay for as low as 50$

What drum VST does /mu/ use? I use the audiorealism ADM, but I'm curious what else is out there. I've got that, and the included ableton packs.

>>50389748
yeah the tempest is a top-notch piece of gear

>>50391378
battery, kontakt or just samples in my DAW

Where the fuck can I get some good instruments. I've been working with fmmf and twisted energy for fucking ever and I just want some good synths or something.

>>50391434

>>50391273
>>50391243
they sound way too low bit digitaly for me, same as the kick on the 707, but everything sounds like that

>not synthesizing your own drums
>MMXIV

>>50391611
naw, i do that too. found sound as well. all are good options

>>50391611
but layering sounds is just so much easier to get the desired effect

i like to layer a lot of x0x drum sounds together, the attack of an 808 kick and the tail of a 606 usually work nicely

>>50391458
Don't know how to really torrent and broke. Thanks though

>>50391733
you can still layer when you make your own sounds, but yes, your way is fine too

I got like 6000 drums from a link on warbeats. Comes with 808 909 lm1 all of that shit. Its nice but I don't have any GODDAM INSTRUMENTS!!

Synthesized drums were actually a lot more distinctive and interesting than the 808 even in the analog days. And I don't really mean the Simmons SDS-5; modular synth drums and stuff like the ult-sound DS-4 (pictured) had a lot more character... They're not generally as good for metallic hihats, handclaps, etc. though.

>>50393237
I've made some pretty wicked drums using a piezo sensor under a rubber pad, and a modular synth.
