"By early '86, Linn Electronics closed its doors and by some accounts, Roger Linn lost everything. Akai subsequently took him under their wing as a consultant, and Roger developed the Akai MPC60 sampling and MIDI sequencing drum machine." This machine continues the evolution of the Linn drum machine line.
