FL909 attempts to simulate the original sound of the Roland TR-909. This drumcomputer hits the market 1984 and was a long time the state of art in house and techno productions. Shift-Click the Step-buttons for accent triggers. Shift-Click-Move knobs for smoother resolution. Press Save to store a snapshot of the current settings to a flash cookie. Restore snapshot by pressing Load. Clear to delete all patterns and reset all knobs. Drag and drop a pattern button (invisible) to copy a pattern to a new location.
You rock. That’s all I have to say :-) Oh and also v happy to see you’re coming to Brighton after all! see you soon. Seb
wow. this is very impressive and also realistic.
my lunchtimes are now sorted with electro beats :)
This looks awesome, going to take a look at the sourcecode. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing!
Great work!!
But accent didn’t work for me… only yellow ones…
everything else is really good!
Excellent. The shift+click for accent didn’t work for me either though :(
Everything else works fine.
Problem fixed. The keys are not working in transparent mode. It should work fine now.
Love this, reminds me of being 18 again… Ta very much :0)
Sickening!
this should be a VSTi plugin!
wow those old detroit noises turn me on! i could listen that for hours! am i crazy?
brilliant! since they locked down work computers, I cant install anything - so my lunches are spent doing work. Now, thats not an issue! MANY THANKS!!!
sweeet!
hello
very good work
i wish the same plug in my set-up in au version
that made a long time that this would have made being!!!
it sound alright…
bye ;-)
Very nice. I would love to have this as vst or au plugin too!!
great work. makes for copious amounts of fun at work. thank you
Enormous!!!!!!
Sick!
You rule!
Great Work
W I C K E D . respect man! ▓▓▓▒▓░▒░▓
IMPRESSIVE!
GREETS FROM RUSSIA!!
Another vote for a VSTi version ! Wicked thing man.
I would love to make this work with multi-touch… Let me know if this would interest you Andre…
Maybe I’m a retard, but I can’t find a download link to this thing ANYwhere. help!
Simply awesome!
Dope! Now I can make beats at work
Any chance of getting a flash-based 303 to go with that?
wow, lots of fun. this has to me made available as a VST. Pleaaassseeee!
çok güzel bir çalışma
i agree with debaker…
303 would be nice! ;.)
I really enjoyed giving this a go, I came up with rhythms that I probably wouldn’t have done with my DAW, just because of the user interface of the 909. The shuffle has a great groove to it.
Scoots.
Nice work! Thanks!
Wow. What a talent of programming. Nice! Absolutely fantastic.
fantastic! all we need now is a distorter + a way to share patterns with friends :)
oh please tell me this is gunna be a Vsti
A vst of this would solve a lot of my problems, please for the love of god make a vst. This would go nuts next to your or the audiorealism vst.
Thanks for the fun
my at work time just got a lot more productive!!! thanks for the brilliant work.
please (let me know when you) turn this into a vsti!
i will spread the word, regardless…
Excellent!! Love it.
Nice job!
But the snare does not sound like a real 909. Can you change those samples please.
tischdecketischdecketischdecke!
909 ftw =)
808?
magnifique!
Well, I don´t like electronic music but I must admit that I´m having loads of fun with 909. Well done, Andre!
This is great. There are few 909 VST plugins out there but this one is the best. Make it VST please?
When you ask to make this into a VST plugin its not some simple task like copying the code over to another program and pressing a button.
This 909 sequencer was written in Actionscript for the Flash platform as a stand alone program.
VST plugins are normally coded in C++, use the Steinberg SDK and are compiled as Windows dlls to be used with a VST host application. Its an entirely different realm altogether.
Sorry I really have no clue of what is involved. I thought perhaps it’s just a matter of adding a midi function somehow using something like Synthedit.
But I like the FL-909. It doesn’t sound exactly like TR-909 but it has a particular character which makes it just as good (in my opinion).Also the drum tuning is great. DIfferent but I like what it does. Too bad it can’t be made VStI easyily. But yeah you did very fine job on it evenin it’s format.
randomize pattern?
Dis sight is sick a bama drop!!
exellent job well done very well done!
Awesome job!
nice one!really great man.:D
i see you made alot of ppl happy.;)
Awesome, this is one instrument what I would need as an VST.
Great job, really fun and interesting.
FABULOUS!!!!!!!!
I guess this is the most user-friendly drummachine ever. I understand it’s a lot of work to convert it to VSTi, so at least we’be got Rebirth for free. This is better than the machine in Rebirth though :)
Absolutely brilliant. You are a scary guy! What I’d really like to know is how you managed to get the timing so tight? for my little machine I’ve been using the getTimer method; but I reckon I have better timing drunk! I’ve looked through your source but can’t figure out what makes it tick, so to speak. Any hints easy to relate?
so good :)
very gd for production but needs more vsts…
Can you make this into a Audio Unit for Logic Pro? This would be utterly sweet to write with! Very very very cool! I have an old CR-78 and love the vibe of it, but there are some real pain in the a– sync issues that make it more of a hassle than a pleasure to use. I’m not sure how that would work, but looks like you have the skills! Great work!
Awesome! The only complaint I could have is that it’s a little small, but that’s really a non-issue. It does get a little laggy every now and then, but I guess that’s to be expected. Got linked to this, and checked out the rest of your site. Lots of cool stuff going on here!
This is one of the web’s most interesting stories on Wed 16th Jan 2008…
These are the web’s most talked about URLs on Wed 16th Jan 2008. The current winner is …..
it’s cool, but Rebirth came out in 97 and is a bit better imo; it is a vst
awesome, thanks for your work on this. It’s fin to mess with

. Totally functional drum machine plays from your browser. Rock out like its…
That is fantastic, just been experimenting recreating the drums from Radiohead’s new “Videotape”, a great song with a great groove.
Thanks for making sure I had even less reason than usual to do revision.
This would fully maximize its time-wasting potential if I could find an easy way to share my beats with my friends.
WICKED AWESOME !! great work :-) unbelievable what can be done with flash…
btw… try create TB303 :-)))

this is pretty sweet. makes me want to go play with my real tr-909.
Needs more cowbell
15 mins 909. not bad ;)
how can i save what i create? :D:D
Can we downloads this baby . . . ? Pleez tells us wher’s and hows, cuz’ we’s don’t finds it, where it’iz, like !
wow! i was thinking for a long time to have a website that let’s you compose grooves.anywhere u may be…
my favourite toy :D
finally da gorgeous shit
Awesome! How about a synth we can play with too?
Anyone know if and how i could get this to play on a pockep pc 2003. I don’t think it’s possible, but there is something new to learn everyday.
Awesome thing!!!
what am I doing wrong?
no sound
Awesome Dude !
u are stupendous
hey, this is wicked. im a guitarist, pianoist, and drummer. Whenever im jamming out on guitar or piano, i wish that there was a drummer to company me. now there is, and he can keep beat!
simply awesome…
congratulations and thank you very much
AWSOME!!!!!!
Wish it could work on my ARCHOS 605…Flash is working on it, but no clue why this FL-909 doesn’t….
If you read this and have an idea why, plzzzz let me know!!
Thanks again, and … RESPECT!!
Hi Etienne, your Archos might be running Flash lite (for mobile devices). The maestro put this together with ActionScript3 which is only fully supported in the big FP9. I’m sure Andre could whip up a Flash lite version while he is developing the VSTi, AU and ZX Spectrum versions!!!
Hey Andre can you write a version for my Texas Instruments Speak & Spell? Pleeease?
TR-909, TB-303, cable physics algorithm… Andre are you planning on Flash Reason 4 Web?? :-)
Just WOW…Now i finally know the difference in handling the tr 909 and my jomox xbase 09…
thank you
Fun stuff, now if only you could get this to export loops to wav files it would be well cool. :D
VST! VST! and have the ability to save your pattern banks within the VST too!
can you copy pattern 1 to pattern 2, and so on?
oh i see! thanks this is awsome!!!! ive got this running into my line in on a third channel, and can rock it along with my records!!! extra boom!!!!
love this. simple to use and be creative with.
I’ve been looking for this for years. Somedays you just get lucky. Thx alot.
So jetzt bastelst noch das passende Cubase dazu und dann machen alle Ihre Mucke nur noch mit Flash. Hahaha total geil was du da machst. Bitte Midi Input nicht vergessen.
xlnt stuff guys 110% well done just 1 prob im not a tech head! cant suss out how to download code!
Thanks for sharing this !
VST, VST!!!
This is great, i’m stuck in a hotel in LA and came across this!
Wicked!
thx for breaking limits, it’s super
very nice! love it! we demand an API with network synch and a 303 as well! :)
This is beautiful.. It feels like you resurrected the phoenix of the Oldskool Roland Synth series.. (or Rebirth for that matter..) speaking of ‘Rebirth’ (from propellerheads) I can’t imagine if one would take further steps to create a virtual studio rack ensemble (almost like Reason, Rebirth or Storm) and create a flash or AIR release with the juicy tidbits of more juicy virtual-analog synths, effects, etc..
Keep it up! The beat goes on!
I love X0X sequencing, so easy to make killer beats!
Good work Andre, it’s really nice to be able to knock beats up away from th normal studio environment, am having great fun :0) Kudos for this one.
kool!!
HAKKUH…
GEORGEOUS!!
thanks
Cheers fur this amazing experience
This is ridiculously amazing! Great work.
I set this as my new home page
it doesnt seem to work, i dont hear any sound :o. pres s start and i dont hear anything xD
hmm maybe im doin sumthin wrong, but a really coll interface i must say
Too bad the audio is behind the ‘walking leds’.
Would be nice if you could press a button which would tell a backend script to create an .mp3 of your pattern. Then you are redirected to a URL where you can download the MP3 for the pattern you just created. The best user experience would be if you could choose between cutting, leaving, or looping the fade-out (as you can in FL studio)
i´m a drummer,designer and amateur musical producer from Rio de Janeiro,BRASIL and found your work accidentally on the internet.
really liked all the stuff you´ve worked on and have put here,especially the FL909, cause it´s not just a thing anybody can play with, but a “real” drum machine you can WORK with!!!
i discovered it (your site) just yesterday and now i´m about to begin a search here to see if i can find one of this REAL toys !!!
lots of fun!!!
congratulations again and continue with your great work!
thank´s !!!
Been enjoying this for a while. Blwon away totally by where youre going on hobnox. Awesome work Andre
Aweseome!
非常好!很喜欢!
