RS909
Introduction.
The RS909 is Roland's TR-909 analog Rimshot sound generator adapted for modular
synthesizer use. The front panel contains all of the controls found on the original TR-909
drum machine, allowing you full control over the sound’s volume levels to mix with other
drums, and accent levels. In addition to those original controls we have also added
control over the two internal oscilators, further enhancing this circuit.
About the Making of the RS909.
The RS909 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, or add excessive
costs. 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 dierences in +/-12V Eurorack power versus the +/-15V of the
original 909, and far many more were addressed in the creation of this module. To learn
more about the process of remaking the sound generators in this series please refer to
the BD808 user guide.
Let’s get started.
To start using the RS909, just plug a gate signal into the GATE IN, plug the RS OUT to
your sound system, set the LEVEL half way and Accent to max, set OSC-1 and OSC-2 to
max, pointing at the direction of the 909 dot on the panel.
Dynamics and Gain:
Accent and Levels:
Dynamic Accent and Level control of any drum sound in the mix is a big part of making a
beat sound right. Dynamic Accent provides emphasis on a particular note through
loudness. In analog circuits like the RS909, the accent pulse physically "hits" the internal
envelope circuit harder and provides not only a louder sound but also slightly more
attack (much like if you were to hit a real drum harder or softer with a drum stick).
While the original 909 has one global accent knob for setting accents levels for all of its
sounds, the RS909 (and all other drum modules in this series) oers an independent
accent level control. This feature adds to a clear work flow than what was possible with
the original machine.
Accent Explained:
The accent input can be driven by either a gate/trigger or CV signal. While the accent
input is not in use, the incoming gate input is routed (normalized) to both the accent input
and the gate input. This serves for two purposes:
1. To allow you to reach the hottest drum sound possible even when there is no accent
input signal connected.
2. It makes the ACCENT knob act as a fine control of the output gain level. This is very
useful in situations where the level knob range is too coarse for setting precise levels in
a mix with other drum sounds.
Connecting a gate or CV signal into the accent input will break the internal routing
mentioned above and will allow for independent control over accent regardless of the
incoming gate signal. In this case as long as there is no accent signal present, the drum
sound will be set to the minimum accent level set internally, and once the accent input
gets hit by a gate or CV signal, the drum sound will get louder in proportion to the accent
level set by the accent knob. In short: the higher the knob setting, the larger the
dierence will be in gain levels between the accented notes and the un-accented notes.
Using CV allows for even greater variations.
