Tonebuilder has launched the DRIVEN MACHINE DRUMS STRIKES BACK and M.D. Bundle, a sample library featuring 4,805 designer drum samples for electronic music.

Elektron MachineDrum

The DMDSB + M.D. Bundle is the result of a 3-year effort, combining over $63,000 in synthesis and engineering technology.

The goal was to create a versatile and unique electronic drum sample library, designed with “in-the-trenches” musicians and producers in mind.

Tonebuilder’s new bundle includes Driven Machine Drums MD, a collection of 2,184 samples in 4 categories: EFM (FM based enhanced feedback modulation synthesis), PI (acoustic physical drum modeling), TRX (808 style vintage analog character), and EP12 (sample based classic vintage beatbox character).
