Appendix A:
MACHINE
REFERENCE

In this appendix, the MD-synths and their machines will be introduced. The
individual machine parameters are presented for reference.

TRX

TRX is inspired by classic analogue drum
machine synthesis. With TRX we have not
tried to recreate any specific existing drum
machine, but to create a classic sound with
extended and relevant controls.
