The Linn Drum is the gold standard of vintage drum machines — the sound of Prince, Michael Jackson, Peter Gabriel, Hall & Oates, and virtually every massive record of the early 80s.

This 3-chip EPROM set loads your Alesis HR-16 or HR-16B with an extensive collection from the entire Linn family: the LM-1, LM-2, and Linn 9000. With 45 sounds — including multiple kick and snare variations, hats, toms, congas, and deep cuts like the Linn Ratchet, Quijada, Samba Whistle, and LA Train — this is one of the most comprehensive vintage Linn sound sets available for any drum machine at any price.

What's Included:

  • 3x custom-programmed EPROM chips (drop-in replacement for stock HR-16 / HR-16B sound ROMs)
  • 45 Linn-family sounds spanning LM-1, LM-2, and Linn 9000
  • Bonus: upgrades your HR-16 OS to v2.0
  • No soldering required — chip swap only

Compatible with: Alesis HR-16 and HR-16B

Note: For HR-16B, chip orientation is reversed — EPROM 16 installs into socket U15. Browse my other listings for more HR-16 EPROM sound sets and Alesis parts, or DM me for anything you don't see listed.
