Description

The Concussor's CR-78 bass drum, in discrete analogue circuitry kept as close to the original as Analogue Solutions could. The CR-78 drew its bongos and congas from the same circuit, so with its added TUNE and a short decay it plays them too.

Key features

  • TUNE, DECAY and LEVEL; TUNE and DECAY act on each other, as in the CR-78's tuned resonant circuit, and some settings make it self-oscillate
  • Two TRIG inputs, 5 to 12 V: a trigger or a gate of 5 V at least, a taller pulse accents the hit
  • No accent input of its own
  • TRIG LED lit by each trigger
  • Two outputs of the same sound, 3.5 mm and 6.35 mm; +/-12 V, 10 HP
