Description
**TR-909 Inspired Max for Live Drum Machine – Live-Optimized, Coded from the Ground Up**
This is not just another drum sample player – this is a fully programmable, live-focused recreation of the TR-909 in Max for Live, combining analog-style synthesis with performance-first sequencing.
Built entirely with Max/MSP (instruments coded in gen~), this device offers a deep and dynamic 909-style sound, including:
**Sound Engine**
- All voices (except hats/cymbals) fully generated using **gen~**
- **Hi-hats and cymbals** read directly from original Roland 909 **EEPROM data**
- Authentic **TR-909 shuffle**, **flams**, and **accent** behavior – applied to both internal and MIDI-Out
- **Track probability** per step for evolving grooves
- **6 assignable group outputs** + master channel with analog-style **saturation/distortion**
- Individual **track lengths** up to 64 steps
---
**Sequencer & Performance Features**
- Built-in **step sequencer** with true 909 workflow
- **Instant pattern switching**, **instant kit switching**, assign kits per pattern
- **Flam depth**, **velocity accent**, **track probability** all affect **MIDI Out** as well
- Fully **MIDI-controllable** (remote control via external gear or controllers)
- **Mute/solo functions**, **mute groups**, and **live-oriented layout** – perfect for on-stage performance
- Clean, minimal interface – no distractions, just tools
