Question about the Korg microSTATION drum kits.

Re-Member · Post by **Re-Member** » Thu Jun 16, 2011 8:26 pm

I was wondering what vintage drum kits and ROM samples are available in the microSTATION. I downloaded both the manual and waveform list, but it doesn't really specify anything regarding what drum machines the sound sources came from.

What I'm hoping for is CR-78, TR-606, TR-808, Linn Drum and DMX kits. I asked awhile back on the Harmony Central forums, but no one knew. Unfortunately, no local dealer carries the microSTATION in my area, so I haven't been able to hear any of the drum kits in person.

I don't know what samples are used for the drums in the microstation, but here are two videos displaying the "audition" for them. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the links. Kind of sounds like Power Kits 1 and 2 are Linn Drum & DMX sounds, while Hip Hop Kit 2 are Roland TR sounds. Kind of frustrating that they don't specify this in the manual. Roland romplers will typically put a model number or acronym to label some of their waveforms so you know what machines they sourced from.
