Rhythmic Robot DAMAGED DRUMS for Kontakt: broken beats!
lundi 5 novembre 2018, 10:51 , par Gearslutz
Hey folks,
How damaged are you feeling today? On the one hand, Damaged Drums is a vintage-flavoured analogue drum synth for Kontakt. On the other hand, it's broken. Or rather, you can decide how broken it is... This all came about when we impulse-purchased an old Whippany drum machine which turned out to be, basically, trashed. But the sounds it made were really cool, in a kind of blorty, fizzy, confused way. Damaged Drums takes that starting point and runs with it, giving you individual control on a per-kit-piece level over how damaged you want your sound to be. Turn the Damage knob all the way left, and you have a fully-functioning vintage-flavoured analogue drum synth with all the usual controls over pitch, decay, tone and so on. Turn it to the right, and you progressively enter more and more unstable, broken territory. This isn't just a crossfade to the "broken" samples – there's a lot of under-the-hood randomisation going on to make the transition truly chaotic cooge Further crusty instability comes courtesy of convolved Spring reverbs and convolved broken speakers – though there are also some tasty Lexicon PCM70 plates if you want a smoother sound – and built-in vintage hiss and vinyl crackle options. There's immense fun to be had with automating the Damage control within your DAW. Instead of dropping the drums out or filtering them for a build, why not dial them back in time and ramp them from totally broken all the way back to shiny and new? Or cut between a full-on beat and a tinny version of it played through a little 3-inch radio speaker? With per-kit-piece control, you can have your kick rock solid but your snare fluttering dangerously on the edge of collapse... it's up to you. Damaged Drums is on special launch offer for the rest of the month, so head over to Rhythmic Robot and hear it in action kfhkh All the details and audio demos are here: Rhythmic Robot Damaged Drums – custom broken analogue drum machine for Kontakt!...or you can take a quick listen right now to the demo below:) Best wishes, The Professor (and Mongo) Rhythmic Robot Audio...
