Roland DDR-30 Digital Drums 1985 | When Roland took on Simmons
Рет қаралды 20,064
Күн бұрынRoland DDR-30 from 1985. The brain in a digital drum system Roland designed to compete with Simmons at the time. Complete this came with a full set of drum pads to go along.
High quality&24 Hours Build Time: www.pcbway.com/
The DDR-30 is a digital/analog hybrid system. The 24 12-bit PCM samples are digital, but each of the 6 drum voices you can play at the same time are processed analog through the CEM 3360 VCA. Not untypical for the rest of the Roland MKS modules from this era.

/ espenkraft
All the 6 drum voices (kick, snare and 4 different toms) can be triggered from pads through the 6 trigger inputs on the back. Or the voices can be played over MIDI. The 6 voices also have their own individual outputs. There's also a mixed stereo output.
The demo song in the beginning is done with only the DDR-30 providing drums. The hi-hat is not part of the DDR-30, but since you can process the individual drum voices with no less than 16 parameteres each, I just took a snare and tuned it into a hat and overdubbed that part.
The rest of the demo song is Sequential Six-Trak for a LIVE solo while bass, poly synth and arps are coming from the Jupiter-8.

Growing up I listened to so much synth-pop and it's only natural that my own music takes inspiration from many of the acts I loved back then. I still love them and listen to them!
Howard Jones, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Erasure, Thompson Twins, Tears for Fears, The Human League, Propaganda. FGTH, Ultravox, OMD, Eurythmics, Duran Duran, Giorgio Moroder, Jean Michel Jarre, Jan Hammer, Alphaville, A-ha as well as loads of artists doing what is now called Italo Disco. And many more great acts like Nik Kershaw, Spandau Ballet, Wham, Dire Straits ++

No hi-hats or ride or crash cymbals? Did Roland think those were just a passing fad?! 🤨 Some of the other sounds sound a bit like what's in my Roland TR-626, D-10 and U-220, but not *exactly* like them. I know Roland re-used some samples, but it's difficult to say which ones -- especially if they've adjusted the pitch, EQ, or envelope a bit. And I saw a U-220 in there, Espen. I didn't know you had one. Have you done a video on that yet? I'd love to see one! The "re-synthesis" method of "synthesis" is interesting, but I don't think many companies did it other than Roland (for the U-20 and -220) and Fairlight (more or less). Thanks for another informative video, Espen!

Gotta love that Vacuum Fluorescent Display! Cool intro track Espen :) Do you find that (other than nostalgia) it's actually useful to have this type of device, when you could get a lot of the same result (I think?) if you used the same PCM samples in a mid-80s sampler? Or is that a bad assumption?
@EspenKraft 3 жыл бұрын
Well, I must admit I'd never bought it myself unless for pocket change. I do by very well with some good samples of it. But if I'd ever want to play some drums live on pads, it will be nice to have within reach and truth be told, with the quite extensive sound manipulation you can do with the sounds, analog no less, it's hard to capture all the different variations, you'd have many many samples to do that.

There is always something to be had from using the sounds straight out of the machine. More organic maybe and the dynamic range is bigger that way.

How much is it worth? And how much better than samples is it? My Tr-505 sounds way better than any samples I've heard. Thank you for your answer :)
@EspenKraft 3 жыл бұрын
I don't know what you mean by "better" or that about the TR-505 though. If you want to use the pads input you should definitely get a DDR-30. It sounds very good, but in a production a good sampled drum machine one-shot will not be heard from its original source. However, some drum machines have their own internal groove, not possible to replicate with samples and an external sequencer/daw and some drum machines, like the Linn 9000 has that magic hi-hat fader so I get the magic of drum machines, I'm like that as well. It depends on how you use them. The DDR-30 is not a drum machine however and I would never have bought one except for extremely cheap if I hadn't received one as a donation. ;-)

@@EspenKraft thanks. I get what you're staying and I agree :) Imo, the sounds coming directly from the Tr-505 sound better than samples coming from a plugin. Not sure why it is so, but it just is. I totally agree, you couldn't tell which is which in a mix. But if all sounds come from plugins, or all sounds come from vintage hardware, there will be a different "vibe" overall, not just because of the hands on, but the sounds themselves.

I can guess Roland decided against it due to inability to provide more memory for samples.
@EspenKraft 3 жыл бұрын
Even big artists/producers stayed away from electronic cymbals at this time. They often overdubbed live cymbals. Roland also wanted to compete with Simmons and they didn't include cymbals either. This was pushing the limits of the tech within a reasonable price point.
@carlosserrano3985 3 жыл бұрын
Because is not a drum machine, the DDR-30 is an electronic drum kit, it came with pads, check the video and you will see the triangular shape pads, it was made for a drummer to play and use their acoustic cymbals.
