This topic might have good info: Prince Drum Machine Knock...rslutz.com ( ... i'm still finishing to read it
I checked the online Sound On Sound magazine about the ArenaLinn. Their last article about ArenaLinn is in October 2008 and I didn't see any mention of Prince related to that drum model. So far it's tough to discover which drum equipment he used for 20ten.
Maybe there are also drum machine details in the topics here in the archives, where orgers posted questions for Prince's 90s drummer Michael Bland?

Yes i have.it's always fun to read about Linn.But it's more based on spectulation.i mean they spent more time on trashing the linn then beinf objective.two posters said they haze Prince's rim sound.imagine that | |

He used Fairlight CMI drums on some late 80s songs, such as "It". | |

He might have sampled the Linn for the Fairlight. There are some sounds on "It" that suggest that they came from a different sound set though

Didn't he use a Dynacord (Add One?) for the drums in the late-80s? Lovesexy?

Did the Linn 9000 have its own sounds? Because Kiss snare sounds like LM-1, but I know David Z said he used the 9000.
I think he used LM-1 on his own stuff for 1999, Purple Rain, SOTT etc.
But LinnDrum for Sheila E's albums  |
