Tempest QuickStart Video

[WuTangBoneThugs]

I will pay the full $2000 and maybe even extra if you throw in some kind of way to get a nice voice like yours.

[PLASMA22280]

amazing groove box but with the current price no one will buy it....

[squeakD]

This drum machine is amazing.., but sweet Jesus why is the price so high? I can't imagine your production costs per unit being anywhere near the street price. It's a great unit.., but I think you guys priced it out of reach for a lot of people.

[lazerfaceband]

@squeakD

its actually super cheap for what it is. There is nothing comparable in this price range, the Jomox 999 is the same price but it's features are laughable compared to this..

[soundmanhaven1]

16x 16x time 16 time lol

[021kdu]

roger 2013...mpc 3000 is 20 years old anniversary ! give us a present mister linn

[FreestyleLilWayne]

pretty cool

[RoberTastic]

you have a smooth voice

[japetus]

I can't explain how bad I want this. 

[mantra3000]

That voice... Oh that voice...

[2020TYBO]

*VCA'S/LFO'S

[2020TYBO]

THIS IS DOPE..YO MEEDILY..IT REALLY HAS 8 OUTPUT..6 INDIVIDUAL AND TWO MAIN OUTPUTS..PLUS HEADPHONE OUT..

[tonykanemusic]

Lmfao. Dude just said buying a drum machine for 2 gs is the equivalent of buying a rolls royce. Lmfao. You can not find a destroyed Rolls for 2gs. Lol. I can't get over this. Evidence our education system passed a bunch of geniuses who could do anything they want in life.

[TheOPTIMYSTICALbeats]

so can you import your own sounds into this or is it just its internal presets your able to use? ive never seen one of these before !

[2020TYBO]

@TheOPTIMYSTICALbeats ..PRETTY MUCH..YOU CREATE YOUR OWN SOUNDS THROUGH THE PRESETS/VCO'S/TWEAKING ETC..IT DOES HAVE USB..SO MAYBE THROUGH THERE YOU COULD GET SOMETHING IN..BUT IT'S REALLY NOT FOR THAT..IT'S A DRUM SYNTHESIS MACHINE..NOT A SAMPLER..

[TheKekelol]

@TheOPTIMYSTICALbeats it synthesizes the drum sounds which are editable. I don't think you can use samples. If you want to use samples check out the Elektron Machinedrum UW-1

[Meccanizm]

Roger Linn we need you to design plug ins maybe perhaps a squencer that would work with all daw platforms to start with please.

[jnorth]

This really is a luxury drum machine.  Investing in this is like investing in a Rolls Royce or a Porsche.

[fermixx]

How big does my fortune have to be in order to have one of these in the studio?

[meedily]

Sorry, I'm a bit dense. Just to be straight, it can play 32 different sounds in a project, but it can only play 6 at a time right? How does that work with the 6 outputs? Do certain sounds share a specific voice, so for example, the bass drum and shaker would steal from each other's polyphony?

[ZachariasEinstand]

thanks for demonstration. well done must be sayed. It fits the best of all and much more. the e-mu pitch, mpc velocity, dmx punch and at least tr controls. of course without copyng 1:1. thats how i see it. I hope i'll get one.

Do you keep one for you sweeting up retirement

[beefinator14]

heh sounds like even the clicker is analog

[gavincurtis]

FINE.... I will take one if I you let me go on my way. ;)

[Jannto]

A this professional video and it's not de-essed?

:(

[jazzlicka]

I am itching to hear some demos from buyers

should give 1 of these to Plaid or Wagonchrist to demo

[invens1]

cool, thanx + respect !

[hooptyndablowfish]

Two words: 12 Months Same as Cash.

[rhampton1914]

@hooptyndablowfish - I agree. let me pay it off in 12 months. Too much money to kick out all at once.

[dalasv]

Roger, you are fantastic. Thanks for all you've done.

[zebastian21]

amazing machine...Pls Roger...make more videos.... they work better than ambien

[mattsynth]

Roger you are the King of drum machines. I can not wait to get my hands on this one. Great work.

[mattsynth]

Roger you are the King of drum machines. I can not wait to get my hands on this one. Great work.

[numanuma20]

You can do rudiments on this? Can I use drum triggers with this?

[KaKb0i]

great machine, but next time have a glass of water before making a video. #cottonmouth

[traenq]

oh wow... I think I want one. will get back to you sometime next year ;)

[disconnect4]

18:30.. the first time i hear some wicked ill beats from this machine. i like the real time effects recording. gotta wonder if you can record the knobs via MIDI CC messages.. or better yet can you record all the knobs from the internal recorder. seems like that would be really dope.

[jeremyellismusic]

We owe everything to you! A million thanks!

[MrAJASI]

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING ANALOG POWER PUNCH

[stoplivingbecomedead]

I will be first in line with a fistful of dollars for this! I would love to hear more demos with the " bass guitar " or synth sounds being used tough. Could you demo some of the synth stuff please?

[VJFranzK]

It's great to see this detailed demonstration! I can't wait to try it myself. RE: 12:00 I like to play quantized drum rolls that go from slow to ultra fast. Could I map the quantization value to one of the sliders, and / or the pressure of the pads?

[suitandtieguy]

i love hearing you talk.

when you make a drum machine like that but only deals with user samples i'm buying it.

[PongFuTube]

Turn on transcribe audio for extra information.

[beefinator14]

@PongFuTube youtube transcribe function makes any video funny

[TR929]

I have an early prototype, I will add a vid shortly along with the rare TR-929 ; )

[AliothSenator]

I need a job.

[VincentsVideoVisions]

Definitely expensive, but I hope that I can buy one.

[pseudomass]

Is it released yet?

[dep1001]

Cool machine! I really hoped it would have been some what affordable.... But USD2000,-/EUR1869,- is just out of my league! :-(

[flux302]

Loving it

don't need it but SOOO WANT IT!

[ianhind]

What a coincidence, I'm the 303rd viewer ;-)

[soupforare]

Your narration is like Bob Ross, completely soothing. :3

[ionraygun]

@soupforare Very true! I'll bet Roger would make a great hypnotist (when not inventing gear that is)

[kreeper6]

Black Pads!

[CoolColJ]

Soothing voice :)

[dslsynth]

Many thanks for a great demo of the Tempest. This is something a lot of people (myself included) have been waiting for for a long time.

Look very much forward to see more Tempest Temptations. :-)

[TherapyHiccup]

wish i could afford this beast

[Puzzlegob]

Thanks for the great video! Pre-ordered mine!  Loving the new colour scheme too!

[1210Jazz]

I'm getting this machine. 

[Revelator72]

@1210Jazz I don't think I'll be able to resist either, price be damned.

[Boddhisattva007]

I will find a way to buy one... That thing is so amazing!

[babar141]

nice gear but too expensive

[archebeats]

i want one, but i don't have a lot of money/
