Demonstrating new snare and bass drum prototypes. Four years of studying Roland schematics and thinking about the physics of real drums has yielded some all-analog models. '
DIY-savvy types are invited to check out the related Andromeda Mk-1, Mk-2, Mk-3, Mk-4 minimal drum synthesizer kits available thru my site, ericarcher.net
A Hewlett Packard 8018A Serial Data Generator was used for sequencing in this video.
Very nice job! I also built an 808 kick and snare clone years ago. They still work. Love these sounds.

@synthdood Thats really cool. Did you find plans for it? from scratch?

first listen ;-) Sounds great, and you get a lot of cred for using drum machines with no shell, just the bare essentials. Are these the Andromedas, or new models coming soon?

@VJFranzK thanks for listening. Andromeda Mk kits use the same Roland-derived technology but are simpler models
