ICONDrum, a LinnDrum emulator from

[@taosophymusic]

I have Aly James’ VProm. It is as close as I’ve ever heard to the original LinnDrum-which I used to own. In fact you can hear Aly James’ on my page where I recreate Prince(The Linn Drum Master) tracks with it. I don’t understand GeForce’s need to put different velocity keys on the interface. I mean who’s using their mouse as an input device!!? Also it’s unfortunately competing with VProm and Behringer’s LM Drum. To me, based on this demo, Aly’s wins hands down. We’ll see how close Behringer gets.

I have the Vlinn ti not sure if I will buy this cause it doesn’t have the sequencer!

Who uses a mouse? Many users with disabilities. Things you haven’t also considered, this is less money than other 2, Silicon support, and a better UI. AJ could well change these with v3, but as it stands this is a welcomed addition.

I too used to own a LinnDrum (it was one of my first pieces of kit). After selling it I had searched for samples or other means of getting the same sound but nothing satisfied me. That is until I discovered the VProm. It totally has the vibe that I remember from my old LinnDrum.

And v3.0 is cooking hard 😉

[@ElectroPanPipes]

@@Alyjameslab Niiice, we certainly look forward to it. Hopefully that cooking pot is almost boiled 😃 I’ll be buying it 100%

I bought one because it's cheap, looks good,and sounds pretty good. Up to a point. But, as Aly points out, a LinnDrumm works with its data in a way that "cannot be replicated by using samples of its analog output alone." And "decodes original EPROM data images in real-time using the exact decode table from the AM6070 DAC at a variable sample rate." So this is a bit of a lazy release compared to VPROM, depending on how fussy you are about getting an absolutelly authentic sound. Although Aly still not releasing a properl Apple Silicon version after all this time is extremely poor too. Maybe this will encourage him to get on with it?

Nice video, thanks. Incidentally there’s a half price introductory offer at the moment. £30.

Better then V LINN ?

If it doesn’t have the sequencer it ain’t worth it

Learn your DAW

[@gsmusic2009]

@ Lol get out your feelings hater!!! I know multiple DAWs! Completing the product makes more sense if they are competing! Roland completed there Drum Machines ! If this can’t beat Alys then it’s just like any other replica! If it’s completed then it would have a really good standalone version.

@@gsmusic2009 It’s a vst, hosted in a DAW. No need. Learn your tools and you’ll get further in life. Or keep moaning on whilst nobody cares, your choice!!

You lost everyone at no sequencer. 🤦🏻‍♂️ that was the ENTIRE soul of the machine. Anyone can make a UI with fancy knobs. The only saving grace is if this can be -highly- incorporated with the Push2 which none of the other Linn plugins can at all. Trust me….i tried. On top of the fact that Oliver’s processed Linn samples/loops are absolutely second to none. This just seems redundant. Why are all the plugin companies re-hashing these machines 5 times? You MUST be bored reviewing this stuff by now 🤣

[@vaiman7777]

Lost everyone? No, just you. And thankfully they didn’t make it just for you. Everyone else is happy
