ok , i was wrong , it's not casio drums .. memtechlist was on good way , i had confirmation by a good source who told me : "...how they did it and he said they played it all live on a Syndrum. Those early 80s plastic drum kids..." thanks again for all your contributions ! cheers ! --- In CZsynth@yahoogroups.com, "steve_the_composer" <smw-mail@...> wrote: > > Finally a source that mentions Casio.

In those days Unity used such "unplugged" methods of recording as actually playing the electric drums live - they had no facility for looping. You can still hear the drum guide plips in the Casio keyboard that they used for many of the tracks; in fact sometimes they even accentuated the plip to make it part of the track. One of the big tunes for Unity and their label was Selah Collins' "Pick A Sound". It still sounds good today with its electronic edge but it sits halfway with the form and sound of classic reggae chops still in there." > > --- In CZsynth@yahoogroups.com, "More" <moresounds@> wrote: > > > > it's writen inside booklet Cd of a compilation with all kind of this > > same drums sounds (name of compilation : Watch How the People Dancing > > <http://www.jahtari.org/magazine/reggae/unity.htm> ) >
