Tiptop Audio - TOMS-909

The TOMS909 is a module that faithfully recreates the circuits of the LOW, MID, and HIGH three tom drum sound sources found in the TR-909. This module was designed to achieve a sound reminiscent of a machine fresh off the production line in the 80s. Furthermore, the tuning range of each tom has been expanded, allowing for sounds like a soft bass drum in the low frequencies and higher-pitched toms in the high frequencies.

The tom circuits are composed of a stack of nine triangle wave oscillators, filters, VCAs, and envelopes, collectively occupying about half the space of the original 909 circuit board. Utilizing the latest electronic design technology, TOMS909 has succeeded in packing this massive circuit, consisting of over 450 components, into a mere 16HP width. This beautiful circuit board, with its hundreds of tiny components shining, is truly a jewel of analog.

Each tom is equipped with a trigger, an accent input with accent level control, manual tune, a voltage-controlled tune input with an attenuator, and three independent audio outputs. Additionally, a MIX output is provided to output all three toms together, and a MixBus is available on the rear panel for internal connection to the mixer module MIXZ. Each gate input features a dual pulse shaper circuit, allowing the TOMS909 to be triggered by trigger/gate signals from pulse/clock sources such as sequencers.
