Quad 909
Brand: Quad
The Quad 909 is a legendary drum synthesizer that was introduced by the British audio equipment manufacturer Quad in the late 1970s. It uses discrete components and transistor logic to generate a unique and distinctively crisp and powerful sound that has been cited as a major influence on the development of electronic dance music, particularly in the UK's acid house scene. The 909's distinctive combination of carefully chosen drum sounds, including kick drum, snare, hi-hats, tom-toms, and cowbell, became a defining element of many electronic dance genres, from techno to house to trance. Its popularization helped to establish the paradigm for modern drum machines and continues to be used by musicians and producers today, due to its distinctive sound and highly desirable collector's status.
