about

Analogue "super-drums" from a 1985 Casio MT-52 run through the external input on the Novation Bass Station II, using the analogue filter to add some excitement and motion. On the high-pass setting, adding overdrive gave a nice saturated flavour and switching the slope from 12dB to 24dB with the resonance cranked up really brought out the sub-bass in the kicks. Everything was recorded straight to four-track tape on a Tascam Porta05 Ministudio. A Zoom MS-50G multi-effects stompbox was used for a reverb send during mixdown.
