ADSR Sounds has announced the release of an update to its full featured virtual drum instrument that comes with an extensive library of kits and patterns.

Version 1.3 of Drum Machine allows you to automate parameters with the sequencer, alongside various other improvements.

Control commonly used features of DRUM MACHINE by drawing in or randomising values across time. The modulator feature is used to control some properties of an effect (filter cutoff or resonance for example) or the sample (pan, pitch, gain etc).

Complex control of samples and fx are available at the click of a button and the modulation of these characteristics help produce a sense of movement, dimension, and depth – breathing life into your beats and making things less static. Modulation options include : velocity, pitch, pan, gate, filter cutoff / resonance, phaser and sends.
