Also, the LinnDrum (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinnDrum) and the Linn 9000 (though that's not quite as popular).mementus wrote:Thank you. Basically I am looking for basic signature sounds that every "producer" must know, and not a specific genre.
So let's recap: 606, 707, 808, 909, DMX, LM-1, Drumulator SP-12.
Yamaha drum machines were also quite popular, as others here have noted. Korg had some good ones, but I don't know how many had "signature" sounds, like the machines we've listed so far. And Simmons was huge in the early '80s, especially for their toms and snare.
