vLINN - Linn LM-1 Drum Machine Emulation - Any Users?

[Aly James]

Thanks for the support
Here is the full demo playlist I have recorded so far, There are a lot of Minneapolis Funk vibe inside and one is featuring the legendary keyboard player Doctor Fink! (anyone remember 1984 Purple Rain Movie ?)
Brown Mark (One of the Funkiest Prince's bassist) will probably do a Funk Bass jam video using the VLinn soon too
This might not talk to young people but those in the know should be amazed like I am with the follow up

"Young people" are not necessarily uninterested the astonishing availability of music has arguably stimulated the passions of even more young people more fervently than ever before, lots of styles, there are some revisited 80s inspired stuffs too like http://www.kungfury.com/ and I can perfectly recognize and hear the musicianship, funky groove in these dems
Glad it is on Mac now!

VPROM recently updated; now there's a choke function for the EXTRA voice, less CPU usage, and optional 16x oversampling among other things.

Here's some info I keep saved for creating new sounds to convert with Prommer:

352 BPM = 1 beat equals 4096 samples (4K EPROM) at 32000 Hz sample rate
There's 4, 8, 16, and 32 K EPROMS. VPROM only supports up to 32K.

4K = 1 beat = 4096
8K = 2 beats = 8192
16K = 4 beats = 16384
32K = 8 beats = 32768
64K = 16 beats = 65536

And here's the math for the tuning knob values to copy and paste in case you ever wanted a specific samplerate like 32000 or 26000 but couldn't quite drag the knob there.

1000 = 0
22550 = 0.5
44100 = 1
22050 = 0.48839907192575406032482598607889
24000 = 0.53364269141531322505800464037123
26000 = 0.58004640371229698375870069605568
32000 = 0.71925754060324825986078886310905
y = 1000 + 43100x
x = (y - 1000) / 43100

Does VProm ever go on sale? or is there a package deal of both VProm and the VSDSX?
