    I remember when the real 909 first came out - IIRC, back then it was nearly a thousand dollars!

    I didn't like the sound of it back then, either.


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

    BTW, you can whip up your own 909 kit for free using SONAR's bundled Cyclone sampler. Get the samples here.

    I used samples for years (909 is a staple of house + the 808 kick) .. but it's not the same as the real thing or the vst, tweaking it as the tune goes along and seperate outs etc. 


    like psp, d16 put the poles on the map with regard to vst's / fx (are there more I'm forgetting) .. their emulations are spot on.. with regards to pricing , they normally do a decent bundle deal at xmas.

    d16's lush.. is.. LUSH , smashes the cpu.. but then again so does diva

    I do think you'd like their fx units though moreso bit. IRC they have demos of em, and they aren't in the fabfilter price range.

    I had the little brother, the TR505, in fact I still have it in the loft somewhere. It fell into disuse when I got a an Alisis HR16, which beat the Roland stuff hands down in my opinion, but I was after more "real" sounding drums.
     
    No GAS for me on this one. In the unlikely event I want a 808 or 909 sound they seem to be everywhere, I would probably go to Toontracks No1 hits. To this day I still do not know why I bought that one! (Don't get me wrong, It's good at what it does, its not my sound)
     
    But I respect Fog's opinion that for certain types of music this D16 product would be useful.
     
    d16's effects are excellent.
