What a teaser for a properly recorded demo
Linnstrument here but no mm2 - if youāre struggling to find anyone hit me up as my intention was to get one at some point⦠I could probably jump on that next round.
Thanks, I have enough people on board for mpe testing. Itās almost ready btw
Since weāre going to version 2.0⦠it being big⦠and almost readyā¦
You could spoil us on a daily basis with one new feature.
Iām not impatient! Not at all but but⦠would you? Please pretty please.
My focus is to publish it within a couple days, probably on Monday, then you can have fun and I can focus on producing the next batch for even more people to have fun
So: not enough days to reveal one feature per day
Sad the DoubleDrummer isnāt in production anymore.
Or might we be so lucky that thereās a v2 coming in the near future?
What portable drummachines/sample players would pair nicely with the MM2?
A quick search got me this:
- Elektron Model Samples
- Novation Circuit Tracks/Rhythm
- Korg Volca Sample
- 1010Music Blackbox
- Roland TR-6S
edit: I mostly lean towards the Circuit Rhythm for it having 2 inputs with side chain compressing.
Already own the LPP MK3 so having the same workflow would make good sense as well.
No
Depends on your definition of āportableā but I use mine with a Polyend Tracker, both plugged into a two port USB battery, and I love it.
I wouldnāt take it out on the bus, but itās great for moving room-to-room or maybe hanging out in a coffee shop (if those still existed).
Never used trackers, but I do know I donāt like Excel so not sure me and Poly T will match very well.
Was hoping to score a Nord Drum 2 but those seem to be prices higher than the Nord Drum 3.
Maybe I can find a DoubleDrummer on Reverb or Ebay. How many of those were there ever sold?
The Blackbox is a great pairing. Like the circuit, it also can act as the sequencer for the 2 MM2 timbres, and it can also capture the audio (1 stereo in, 3 outs) with compression (no side chaining). Itās way more than a simple drum machine - great combo.
Edit: In/outs corrected
The Blackbox has a lot to offer. I like that it does multi stereo sampling.
It doesnāt have 3 stereo inputs though, just 1.
Thanks for the correction - Iāve updated. I only just got the Blackbox myself last week but have enjoyed it with the MM2

Enjoy !
wow that is a super update !! Thanks a lot !!! The MM2 is such an amazing synth.
Nice update I would love to get one of these in the next batch but I live in the UK. Do you have any advice on how to get one since your Web site says you wonāt ship to the UK?
What an update! Iām excited for all of it, but super excited about the new FM, unipolar LFOs, and MPE support.
Thanks for the hard work you continue to invest in this amazing synth!
Tonight Iām going from version 1.0 to 2.1 This will be epic for sure!
Woahhh
Great to also see eq per patch!
Hope I can grab one on the next batch as well.
Amazing work!
