DrumComputer

About

DrumComputer is a drum machine plugin by Sugar Bytes. It is a drum sound design tool for synthetic drums, combining synthesis, modulation and sequencing. It has 8 sound engines, each layering a resonator, a wavetable or analogue oscillator, and a resynth or sampler. Sound randomizers with profiles and a MakeKit button generate new drum sounds and kits.

What it sounds like

Its three synthesis layers cover a range of timbres, from a classical analog resonator to wavetable, plus resynth for liquidized cymbals, snares and synths. Each kit channel has a preset browser, global pitch and decay controls, a modify knob, and a profiled random function.
