LinnDrum or LM-2
The LinnDrum, also referred to as the LM-2, is a drum machine manufactured by Linn Electronics between 1982 and 1985. Its high-quality samples, flexibility, and affordability made the LinnDrum popular; it sold far more units than its predecessor (the LM-1) and its successor (the Linn 9000) combined. Roger Linn re-used the moniker on the LinnDrum Midistudio and the Roger Linn Designs’ LinnDrum II.
It quickly became a staple of 1980s pop music, used by many well-known acts such as Michael Jackson, Prince, and Stevie Wonder.
The LinnDrum featured sampled sounds as well as synthesized sounds, and it was one of the first drum machines to allow users to create their own custom drum kits. With its compact size and ease of use, the LinnDrum played a major role in the popularization of electronic drum machines.
The LinnDrum was used on many recordings throughout the 1980s, including international hits such as Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s “Relax”, a-Ha’s “Take On Me”, Harold Faltermeyer’s “Axel F”, Billy Idol’s “Rebel Yell” and Madonna’s “Like a Virgin”.
Designed by Roger Linn
The LinnDrum was a drum machine introduced in 1982 by the company Linn Electronics. It was designed by Roger Linn, who had also designed the earlier LM-1 drum machine. The LinnDrum was less expensive than the LM-1 and thus more affordable to a wider range of musicians.
Even today, the distinctive sound of the LinnDrum can be heard on tracks by modern artists such as Beck, Nine Inch Nails, and Daft Punk. Thanks to its enduring popularity, the LinnDrum remains one of the most sought-after vintage drum machines on the market.
