I've personally had two machinedrums and one uw I've spent countless hours with this this thing,and well here it goes.... for older tr-xox snares the trx snare is great i've pulled 606, dr-55, cr-8000,dr-110 and cr-78 snares with ease the trick patience and a keen ear, I usually have a sample of said snare and then an audio example of its dynamics as it plays it its original state...the true trick small adjustments ...eq, fillter, etc.......alrighty then now on to the 909
snare this formula here is the closest i've come to a true emulation of this most powerful snare. to get a super 909 snare with this formula double it trigger them together, and us some accent...
909-snare: efm-snare
ptch-o
dec-61
nois-63
ndec-64
mod-63
mfrq-63
mdec-23
hpf-0
you can filter and eq as you desire..me i dont you any..now to the lfo's
lfo-param-ndec
shpl-sawtooth
trig-speed-15
depth-127
alright so there you have it...for a good 707 snare thats not a sample use th same formula as for the 909 but instead set the inital...
tr-707-efm snare:
dec-47
and for the lfo's set the...
trig-speed-33
also make sure your lfo's are set to trig....on both formulas
as for the 909 clap the best results i've achieved have also been with the efm-clap..experiment with eq-filtering and lfo triggered decays to get the best results...I hope you find this usefull...as for myself I rarely ever have to use samples of another drummachines snares or anything else for that matter.the machine drum is truely a deep machine...use patience and your ears and I promise you'll have great results..
