de la Mancha erratic 2, the demo of this drum sample player is now available

de la Mancha has released a demo version of erratic 2, a drum sample player with a host of randomising and velocity sensitive options to make any drum pattern sound different on each loop.

It can be used to add realism or surrealism depending on how you want to set it up. At the core you have a 15 slot drum sampler with 6 velocity layers per slot, each layer can be played according to velocity, cycled (round-robin) or randomly triggered. To vary things up a bit you can determine the hit probability for each slot and add a random factor for the velocity, pan and swing for each hit.
