“PSP Rhythm is our experiment in learning how to code C and do something cool with the PSP. We don't do this for popularity or money, we do this because it is fun and interesting and hopefully someone will enjoy using it! “
According to the guys the PSP Rhythm was inspired by classic drum machines such as the Linndrum and Roland TR-series. PSP Rhythm uses audio sample playback rather than drum synthesis for it’s voicing with four downloadable sample packs available :
Now at the ripe old iteration of V2, you might detect a certain similarity between the look of of PSP Rhythm and Elektrons classic MachineDrum – that’s because it’s one of the twins favourite drum machines. The most significant change between ver. 1.5 to 2.0 is the use of "parameter locks" (as used by the MachineDrum). Parameter locks enable you to change the pitch, volume, and pan per step to create moving, changing melodies and effects. This control over your sounds will give you much more creative freedom and allow you to not only use drums, but to use instruments in your music. Song Mode has been enhanced with a mixer function, allowing you even more versatility with your song writing. The user interface has been made more intuitive and easy to use.

A mon avis y'a pas de quoi foueter un chat, les types semblent de bonne foie, ils apparraissent à visage découvert, je vois ça plus comme un hommage à la MD plutôt qu'un tentative fourbe de détourner un produit Elektron, ils n'ont même pas cracké les algos de la MD pour les foutre sur la PSP... le truc reste gadget et les programmeurs ne cachent pas leur admiration pour la SPS-1 donc..."no watching neighbours".
