The LinnDrum, also referred to as the LM-2, is a drum machine manufactured by Linn Electronics between 1982 and 1985. About 5,000 units were sold. 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. 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 "Eyes Without a Face", Deniece Williams's "Let's Hear It for the Boy" and Madonna's "Lucky Star".

When Linn Electronics closed in 1986, Forat Electronics purchased its assets and offered service, sounds and modifications for the LinnDrum. The LinnDrum was pre-MIDI, using a DIN sync interface, but MIDI Retrofit Kits were offered by JL Cooper and are currently offered by Forat Electronics. (en)
  • La LinnDrum est une boite à rythmes électronique fabriquée en 1982 par Roger Linn, de la société Linn Electronic, pour succéder à la Linn LM-1, première boîte à rythme à échantillons. La LinnDrum dispose de 15 sons de batterie échantillonnés à 35 kHz à partir de sons réels de batterie, ainsi qu'un séquenceur permettant de programmer des séquences rythmiques. Elle a été utilisée par de nombreux artistes, dont Madonna, Sting, Queen, Jean-Michel Jarre, Peter Gabriel, Stevie Wonder, Wally Badarou, Prince, ainsi que pour les génériques du Flic de Beverly Hills et de Deux flics à Miami entre autres.
