DR-910 is a Roland TR-909 drum machine emulation.
The instrument itself does not need presentations: used by artists like Moby, Fatboy Slim, The Prodigy, Jean Michel Jarre, The Chemical Brothers, Faithless and many many others, the TR-909 quickly became one of the most classic pieces of gear in the electronic musician's arsenal.
In terms of sound the DR-910 VSTi is a faithful reproduction of the original device: each sound section (bassdrum, snare drum, etc.) has been developed to sound and act as similar as possible to the original instrument. The plugin includes also some extra features not available in the hardware version: a reverb unit with independent send controls for each sound source, a compressor tailored to work with drum sounds (based on the same engine of MaxSynths DSP-1) and a Lo-Fi FX processor.
These extra features will help the user to quickly shape the sound as desired without using external plugins. However if you need to process the signal with external effects, each drum module can be routed to four different stereo outputs that can be independently processed in the DAW.

Awesome, but need 64bits please.
It's not working in Reason 12. :( I put the .dll in my VST folder, but Reason not recognising as a VST.
32 bit plugin, that's maybe why. You might need 64 bit.

Not just a good emulation of the 909 but sounds good period, like "real" drums. Well done!

This plug in is amazing! An incredible addition to FL Studio if you want that classic 909 sound.

Very close emulation of the 909's sound, works great, dead easy to program.
I can't make it work on Ableton. Any help??
Probably cause its 32 bit. needs to be 64
Descarga el jbridge y ahí lo conviertes a 64 bits
Folks, anyone have any clue of how to install it on ableton live ?
Also would like to know this!
Ableton Live is 64bit so it won't run a 32bit plug-in, there is a program called JBridge which allows to run a 32bit plugin on a 64bit daw, it is also vouched for by Ableton so it's safe to use. https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/209772465-Converting-32-bit-plug-ins-using-jBridge-Win- JBridge is easy to find and it worked for me in the past.
Thanks

So far the best free unit for synthetic drums that I used. The sounds are really great and you can tweak and automate them as you want. This way you can make different versions of the same sound for different parts of the song. It even has some decent effects on it. Awesome! Also, it does not look like ass in comparison to many other free plugins. Only drawback is that it's not in 64bit. But try it, you probably won't be disappointed!

I know it sounds stupid but this I control it via MIDI with a TR-09 roland boutique to play this emulation next to the sounds of the Tr-09 really sounds great this emulation.
great job!!

Awesome, Thanx.
Great emulation - the best - thank you. I had a TR909 - bought for £200 and thought I was a genius businessman when I sold it for £250.|I never missed the actual 909. Hardware for collectors only. Use this emulation for making music in your DAW. Respect.

News flash, Millennials... I'm rilly rilly impressed by your hipster cred with your "bringing back" these classics and everything, but what you're not understanding is that, the reason these were called drum "machines", was because they were programmable. You could program the kick, snare and other bits under a "record" function, and then press a "play" function, and it would play beats on its own. During the 70s, we didn't stab drum machines with an instrument cable until it made a hole, and then we hooked it up to our Hammond organ and played it with the organ's keys. More 101-level, very basic research is needed, so you man-buns can understand the way this stuff was. Duh.
I had a TR909 (and loads of analogue stuff) in the 80's. Sorry, too young for 70's as I'm only 52. I love the latest tech and emulations. Old hardware is for people who like it, and collectors. Doesn't mean anyone else is wrong. Note it's called an 'emulation'. I recall when samplers came out and there was uproar about them being 'not real instruments'.
calm down, grandpa
Abybody knows how to control this thing :(( ???
Make a midi track in cubase/reaper/ or any daw with this vsti as instrument.
It will work brilliantly in your DAW.

Excellent 909. I miss a sequencer tho.

Oh so grateful... I really appreciate it. Live long 909!!
Like a previous reviewer, I sold my TR909 and bought a sampler. In my case I bought a Casio FZ1 - boy I loved that machine. I also sold my OSC Oscar (it broke down all the time). Now I have the DR-910 and Imposcar by Gforce. Thank you so much :)

I use to have a TR-909 in 1988 Sold it later to invest in a S-10 Roland sampler. This VST is like the real version. Perfect !!! And yes its a analog emulation and sound. Not just some samples. Respect !!!!

Felt in love with it the very first moment I tried it. Not a big fan of drum machines but this one is something incredible.
One of my favorite drum machines, effortless sounds.

You can buy Roland TR-09 (you can't afford to get a real TR-909), or you can buy a Roland TR-9, or you can use this plugin. They're all very good!
