[OT] Format for LinnDrum sound chips?
2003-10-01 by Adam Schabtach
Someone just asked me whether I could burn custom EPROMs for a LinnDrum. If I remember correctly, old drum machines used some sort of companding scheme to get better sound than straight eight-bit linear encoding. I thought that this would be the sort of information that would be easy to dig up on the web, but after a half-hour of googling I've come up empty handed. Does anyone know what encoding scheme LinnDrum sample chips used? Given that this is an off-topic query, private responses would probably be appropriate.
