A lasting legacy into the heartbeat of music history

The Oberheim DMX drum machine has left an indelible mark on the soundscape of popular music, crafting the rhythmic foundation of timeless tracks across a spectrum of genres.

From the driving beats of New Order's "Blue Monday" and Madonna's "Holiday" to the foundational rhythms of Run-D.M.C.'s "It's Like That," the infectious Phil Collins’ “Sussudio”, the seminal Hip Hop/Electro jam Davy DMX’s “One For The Treble” or the uplifting grooves of Eurythmics’ 1983 album, its influence is unmistakable. Even Daft Punk's "Discovery" album owes a nod to the DMX.

All of the original DMX sounds from its launch in 1981 are included, as well as the updated DMX sounds introduced around 1983, complemented by the 1982 DX sound set with many alternatives.
