There is no video there. What makes you think there is a Casio being used?

The nearest in my estiimation was a CT-type - couldn't say a model number - didn't recognise any drum as MT,CTK,VL or SK.
Since the remark is "pip-pip" - I imagine they either midi-triggered the "time signal" or sampled it. The subsequent "pip-pip" is unlikely to appear on the record. The VL1 makes a PIP noise that may have been useful has a timing signal I think.

It could have been the RZ-1, since it and that song came out in the same
year.  You can also make drum sounds with the CZ synths.  However, and I'm
no expert, I haven't been able to make some of the drum sounds on that song
with the CZ.

SV: [CZsynth] Casio Drum , but what model ?

2011-02-11 by KW

who told you it was a casio?

i'm quite sure it's a synthesizer drum system called Simmons SDS7, could also be an Pearl Syncussion.

search these two units on youtube for demos.

hope this helps....

.cheers.

That's not much help since the RZ1 samples other drums! The inherent ROM ones I didn't notice on that track - but then I was not listening for those.They seemed less CASIO than I imagined.

Re: Casio Drum , but what model ?

2011-02-11 by More

hi , thanks for answers :)

i think is a cheap one , like the Casio MT-40 who was very used for
digital reggae music ..(with oberheim DMX/yamaha cs01..)

"The subsequent "pip-pip" is unlikely to appear
> on the record. "

they used the plip plip cause all drums was hand played live ,no loop ,
no samples ..

i have WAV file of casio drums , but not the kit used in the selah
colins track

LIST <http://i.imgur.com/WWHEg.png>

one day i will find from where come this sound !

:) thanks a lot for your contribution !
cheers

Re: Casio Drum , but what model ?

2011-02-12 by steve_the_composer

I tried the link again and all I saw was a picture with some text that stayed the same for the entire song. There is no video. 

So, I was wondering why you thought a Casio was being used in the song.

Does that make sense now?

Re: SV: [CZsynth] Casio Drum , but what model ?

2011-02-12 by steve_the_composer

Finally a source that mentions Casio. Out of curiosity, does "drum guide plips" refer to the metronome?


"Sleng Teng" was the breakthrough. It showed how you could construct a riddim on a cheap keyboard. 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."

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 !

> "Sleng Teng" was the breakthrough. It showed how you could construct a riddim on a cheap keyboard. 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."
