DrumComputer is the new synthetic drum specialist, combining classic and modern synthesis with flexible modulations and a luxurious sequencer. Intelligent randomizers, elegant pattern editing and importing your own samples are just some of the amazing features. Enjoy new drums every day and be inspired by the creativity DrumComputer brings. Just because there is still everything unheard of.
Sound Engine
8 separate sound engines contain all the benefits of DSP and shared presets so you can share sounds between engines. The 3 synthesis layers cover a wide range of timbres, from the classic analog resonator to the Wavetable, as well as the amazing Resynth that brings you smooth cymbals, snare drums and synths. We’ve also added a sampler mode for playing your own sounds.
A multi-mode filter, compressor, distortion and 2 send reverbs provide a comprehensive set of tools for building the drums of tomorrow. Enjoy 2 included ENV/LFO hybrids with multiple waveforms and a flexible modulation matrix with sources and targets throughout the instrument.
Easy Access
The kit page presents the most important features of the sound engine. Each of the set’s eight channels provides an individual sound preset browser, overall pitch and decay controls, a modification knob, and a random profiling feature. Define a Mute group to have a trigger on one engine override the sound on another engine, and use Choke Groups for open/closed hi-hat choking as well as interesting synth sounds.
Finalizer is a well balanced recipe of transient shaper, compressor, maximizer and saturation. Use it to bring out the attacks of your drums and let the room breathe.
Millions of drum sounds
Drum sound randomizers with profiles and a MakeKit button will keep surprising you with new drum sounds and kits. Simple patterns turn into vibrant tracks with the Auto Fill feature, which inserts fills and parameter changes at specific song positions. Revolutionary remix management creates crazy fills and covers a lot of grooves and fun.
The Pattern, Mute & Mapping section offers you extensive DrumComputer control that is geared towards live performance. Enjoy total freedom when it comes to assigning drum sounds to the keyboard and use key zones for roll, pitch and modulation. 8 keys are reserved for the mute function, perfect for live rearrangement of your beats. 16 pattern keys plus a pattern chain make it easy to edit patterns and create sequences.
Sequencer
With 16 steps and 16 patterns, the sequencer has many functions. While it provides tempo, direction and stride length for each track, it is also capable of generating full, complex patterns with more than just triggers, you have to try it to believe it.
Included are modulation sequencers for probability, throws, step delay, as well as pitch, decay, and modulation sequencers. And the best part: the full MIDI drag and drop feature creates a MIDI file that contains everything from triggers, modulation sequences to autocomplete and their associated CCs.
