CYMBL909 (Crash/Ride module)

The Cymbal is a one-to-one clone of the original circuit found in Roland's TR-909 drum machine. During the design phase, we created additional features only when implementation would not compromise the original signature sound. Cloning a circuit that was designed and produced in the 80's was not an easy task. A variety of obstacles including availability of the original parts, the modern SMT manufacturing process, the differences in +/-12V Eurorack power versus the +/-15V of the original 909, and far many more were addressed in the creation of this module.
