A Modern Tribute to Legendary Drum Machines
Inspired by the iconic machines of the 1980s, this drum machine combines an 8/12-bit sampling engine with a genuine analog section. It sits at the crossroads between a sampler with strong character and a contemporary performance-focused drum machine, ideal for recapturing the "old school" aesthetic without sacrificing modern convenience.
For Stage, Studio, and Limitless Creation
Designed for ambitious beginner producers as well as experts, it excels in electro, synthwave, italo, old-school hip-hop, pop, techno, ambient, and soundtrack music. In the studio, its 16 outputs facilitate external processing and multitrack recording. On stage, velocity-sensitive pads, auto-scrolling, and direct controls encourage improvisation and spontaneity.
Features and Innovations
Its 8/12-bit sampling engine powers 16 voices with level and pan per track, playable on 16 velocity-sensitive pads with aftertouch. The FX bus integrates a Wave Designer and a dual-mode analog filter assignable per voice. The 64-step sequencer offers polymeter, step/note repeats, real-time triggering, and automation (including filter cutoff). Up to 8 songs and 128 patterns can be stored, with on-the-fly import/export, Pattern/Song modes, and auto-scrolling. Editing is smooth thanks to the 128x64 LCD screen and dedicated encoder for Tempo, Swing, Probability, Flam, and random parameters.
