Developed in 1985, the 727 is the latin percussion version of the 707 and is the perfect add-on to any drum machine or sample collection. Like the other TR series, it has defined various genres of dance music with its instantly nostalgic congas, agogos, bongos, timbales, cabasas, whistles & more. You can find it all over early Detroit techno, 80s disco / garage, Chicago house, Aphex, Vibert, a Bushwick bodega and more.
But this is no ordinary 727 - in fact, it's easily the most comprehensive 727 pack in existence, as every drum has been analog - pitched 30 times on a mastering tape machine. So in addition to the normal, un-processed sounds, you'll get crazy, tape-tuned percussion. A must have for fans of retro drum machine percussion. Like the 707, the 727 is extremely punchy, and to preserve this punch we captured its sounds as cleanly as possible - through an API 512 preamp straight to tape. The tape adds a noticeable analog punch and crunch, so we also captured the raw sounds, straight through our Apogee Symphony converter.
While the original sounds on this machine are pretty perfect, there is only one tuning offered per voice, greatly limiting the unit's flexibility. No matter what you do, you're stuck with "that 727 sound". Don't get me wrong, that sound is amazing, but it's not always what you're looking for. And while you could tune them digitally in your DAW, you'd likely lose the vibe of the hardware along the way.
