Alesis SR-16 Matrix 40: over 800 billion ways to break the beat.

(See YT demo)

The classic 90s 16-bit drum machine, transformed through a 40-point ROM modulation patch-bay (with blue LED underlighting) for new dimensions in sonic manipulation. With the five included patch cables, this modification allows for over 800 billion possible audio processing combinations: fracturing, compression, aliasing, glitching, warping, digital noise, flams, tonal sounds, delays, inversions, sequences, sound stretching, and more indescribable possibilities with every connection.

This vast timbral range is further expanded by four pre-set FX switches for instant processing of your rhythms. Canned Sound’s modification of this classic drum machine has become a fixture in the studios of sound designers and musicians worldwide and will inspire any alternatively minded electronic musician.
