The Forat F9000 (also known as the Forat 9000 or F9000) is a software- and hardware-upgraded version of the ill-fated Linn 9000, an integrated digital sampling drum machine and hardware MIDI sequencer manufactured by Linn Electronics and released in 1984 at a list price of $5,000 ($7,000 fully expanded).

[5] Forat rewrote the Linn 9000 operating system, fixed bugs and added many new hardware and software features.

[6] Dubbed the Forat F9000, it was the first fully functional integrated sampling/sequencing/MIDI work station.

However, as of 2016[ref], Forat still offers the F9000 software and hardware upgrades to existing Linn 9000s.

Many top artists, producers, engineers and drummers have used the Forat F9000 or F9000 upgrades to the Linn 9000.
