Samples From Mars has released 626 From Mars, a sample pack featuring the sounds of the 8-bit brother of the 707 and 727 drum machine instruments from Roland.
The 626 pack includes over 900 individual 24 bit samples, featuring a collection of 16 hit kits, perfect for instant jamming. It comes with clean kits, color kits, percussion, hats & shakers, and cymbals.
The 626 is a classic, 80s drum machine that’s some sort of cross between a 505, 707 and 727, while adding additional sounds these other units don’t feature.
It’s based around acoustic samples, and features 80s gated reverb snares, iconic congas, dry bass drums, crunchy cabasas, agogos, timbales, a cool assortment of cymbals and more. In fact, with 30 voices, the 626 packs in a greater variety of sounds than any other TR series drum machine.
