SP-FORUMS

Hip Hop transformed Roger Linn's early drum machines into sample flipping creation stations. I would like to translate Roger Linn's recent statement about the Linn Drum 2 into casual street-speak.

Here goes*

"With this recession shit no one is trying to drop a new drum sampler that will be like an MPC with an intricate analog filter block and would prolly cost $3500. The Dave Smith synths already do well, so he's not really down to collab anymore on a device that is more a continuation of my legacy. The design is so ill, but I can't snitch on myself and have Roland, Korg and the Beat Kangz lifting my ideas, so don't bother asking any questions- shit is top secret- I can't even tell you when it will be out (never) so check out my guitar pedals"
Peace~ R.L.

pretty accurate summary you got there

i would like to see them allow you do trigger a noise generator, given all those crazy lfos, filters and distortion

Have there been any demos posted any versions of the linndrum ii actually making sound yet?

Nope. Just the sound of geeks like me typing about it on forums.

Yeah, there probably won't be for a while too, as it's apparently still very much in it's design phase. They haven't even decided on what the final features should be.
