Key Features
The SoundForce S-909 Module (4HP) is a six-voice drum module with pre-loaded sounds taken from a genuine 909-style drum machine. Compact and portable in a 4HP unit, the S-909 is ideal for integrating into your existing Eurorack modular synthesizer. Removing any excess and leaving only what's necessary, the S-909 features only audio trigger inputs and outputs for each of the six voices. Removing any creative boundaries, the S-909 lets you focus on your creativity and composition. Including voices for rimshot, handclap, closed hi-hat, open hi-hat, crash and ride soundbanks, SoundForce S-909 is the ideal solution for electronic producers looking for the signature splash of Acid House cymbals to your productions.
Powered by an STM32F405 chip, the sounds within S-909 are ready to go out of the box. Although there are no parameters to control on the module, S-909's inputs are receptive to a wide range of trigger sources, enabling audio-rate triggering for creative sound design. Whether you're looking to expand the functionality of your S-909 by processing through further modules or looking to maintain the authentic 909-style squelch and vibe, the S-909 Module is the perfect solution for you.

While other drum modules on the market offer a bells and whistles approach to drum sounds within your Eurorack, the SoundForce S-909 takes a different approach. Standing out from the crowd, S-909 delivers a no-frills source of classic 909-style sounds. Loaded into the 4HP design are six unique pre-loaded one-shot sounds along with audio trigger inputs and outputs per soundbank. Taken from a genuine 909-style drum machine, the sounds you can imprint into your compositions are extremely authentic. Powered by the STM32F411 chip to drive the 6 DACs and store the sounds, these one-shot samples are recreated with stunning accuracy and fidelity. Rimshot, hand clap, closed hi-hat, open hi-hat, crash and ride soundbanks are all presented to take your composition to the next level, injecting your tracks with the signature sound of '90s dance floor fillers found on Acid House nights. Taking advantage of all that modular has to offer, the SoundForce S-909 presents much more opportunity for sound design than would first appear with the limited and streamlined design. Audio rate triggering, fully independent triggering of each channel and output processing through external effects and modules are just a few of the uses you can enjoy with S-909.
Helping to spawn a new style of electronic dance music, the humble 909-style drum machine's impact cannot be understated. Helping to pioneer musical genres such as Acid House, Techno and classic hip-hop, the one factor that made the 909-style drums stand apart from the crowd was the unique cymbals sounds, recorded in the analog domain and played back via digital sampling. This hybrid design allowed for a natural, smooth and 'splashy' sound that the 909-style drum machine has become so well known for. Taken directly from an authentic vintage machine, the one-shot samples within the SoundForce S-909 is the perfect solution for contemporary DJs or live performers looking to add authentic '90s dancefloor sounds or supplement existing drum tones to your tracks.
