The Jackbox 7R-727 Perc Module was crafted after the legendary Roland TR-707 Drum Machine, a monumental piece of gear, in early house music.
The Jackbox series actually started as a labour of love, rather a formal project for the Rack Extension market. Since as musicians ourselves, we share the same passion as many others for classic house music. So we always thought it would be an interesting idea, to bring virtual representations of our favourite vintage gear to the Reason Rack.
Technically, 7R-727 is a percussion module, that can be played via MIDI, CV Triggers or the Drum Pads.
The separate audio outputs at the back panel and the on-board mixer at the front, follow the drum channel groupings of the original machine. Nevertheless the Jackbox 7R-727 has available Gate Ins and Gate outs for all sounds, as well as Level CV Input for all outputs, separate and main.
Accent & Flam switches are available via automation.
