Punk Labs has announced a complete rewrite of its open source drum synthesizer instrument that is inspired by hexagonal classics like the Simmons SDS-V.

Version 2.0.0 of OneTrick Simian comes with highly requested features such as multi-out buses, chromatic MIDI channels, and a preset browser with editing.

Thumping kicks, punchy snares, and sizzling cymbals coalesce with its clacky claves and crunchy claps. Bring saccharine synthwave sauce to your sublime soundscapes or drop indelable pewww pewww tom toms into your new nu-disco.

Highly customizable voices with great dynamics, filter sweeps, saturation, and drive that will literally flam your tracks. Toss [OT] SIMIAN into your DAW and just see what happens.

Check the full changelog for details on what’s new in OneTrick Simian 2.0.0. The plugin is available in VST3, AU and CLAP formats for Windows, macOS and Linux.

OneTrick Simian is priced $35 USD. The source code is available to download under the GPLv3 license.
