Hi think
I might be able to help you with part of this
See below for compressed file with regards drum synth’s Somewhere on my pc some place, Yes, "terrible computer systems organisation " , I should really keep this logged on a database of some description , i have got some synth module schematics I know i was looking at everything until the dreaded world decided , “ Hey we don’t need a synth anymore we use pc software now to achieve what we would have used a synth for many moons ago “
So I thought, well is this really worth studying in depth save that of possibly observing how to create the different types of wave shapers , oscillators and so forth
Any how here is a start to understanding how a Drum Synth works might be of use to you if nothing else it will at least give you an insight into how this works
Yes alas it is now all laptop and pc with internet and live streaming, digital media , pcm and so forth Not easy anymore Well I suppose you could argue this
Easier on pc and no keybourd skills required or musical skills , or music managers
Has its good points and bad points
Bring back the days of Boston, The eagle's, ACDC Queen, Genesis , Black sabbath, Maddona , Eltohn John , what we knew as artists , Leaders in thier profession
Good top notch never to be forgotten musicians
Good rock and roll blues
Having said all this I do love Armin van buren Excellent music , Id love to see hime live or go to one of his concerts , hes something else live on stage
Still nevermind we have to move on as they say
Modern day synth’s are all software orientated example FL studio the easiest of all of the software out on the market
There are far more complex packages which are available , you will have to excuse my memory, trying to remember what’s out there now is exhausting , never mind how to operate or interact with all of this or even begin to keep up with this
Yes even this market is perishing as too are good musicians, real guitar players ,real vocalists, real drummers , real live concerts
All machine driven , " bleedin robots " Im sure they turning into funny green men In fact come to think of it Im surprised I havent seen shreck in real life I keep expecting him to pop his round the door at some point Shouting , "wibbly, wobbly, woo !!"
Awfull , I think in some ways quite sad in some respects
