• Software sampler for drum and percussion sounds
• Aimed at electronic music producers, sound designers and beatmakers who want to work quickly and precisely with samples.
• The focus is on efficiency, flexibility and a modern workflow that enables creative work in real time.
• Visually organised cell matrix, effects and modular architecture for spontaneous ideas and complex kit structures
• Colour-coded cell matrix with drag-and-drop, sample editing and direct MIDI triggering
• Waveform editor allows precise sample editing including tuning, panning and start/end point editing
• Frequently used functions such as reverse or key assignment can be accessed quickly – even multiple times.
• Each cell has its own envelope (AHDSR or AHD), filter and compressor for basic sound shaping
• Up to eight modulation paths with LFOs, envelopes and velocity behaviour can be configured via the modulation page
• Effects & Routing: Extensive effects section with LoFi, Saturation, EQs, Compressors, Delay, Algorithmic Reverb and Convolution Reverb
• Effects can be applied per cell, bus or globally via master
• Four FX buses allow parallel or serial chains
• Setup page for configuring MIDI inputs, voice groups, round robin modes, articulations, humaniser and MIDI echo
• Integrated browser with tag system for quick organisation and preview function of factory sounds and your own samples
• Automatic distribution of slices from REX, Apple or ACID files to cells
