Drumazon synthesis emulates all the sounds of the original 9O9. All the
instruments are synthesized in exactly the same way as the original. All
the nuances and detail of the original are captured perfectly. In addition,
all Drumazon instruments have enhanced controls. This extra functionality
allows the user to adjust the sounds further than on the original unit.
This opens up a whole new world of sound creation
Outputs
Drumazon has a flexible output configuration. Every instrument's audio
signal can be routed to any of the 11 outputs. This allows users to further
shape sounds individually or in groups via their favourite plug-ins. Each
individual output can be set to mono or stereo. Every instrument also has a
Mute and Solo button. Mute will not just silence the sound, it will stop
the sound being triggered. Solo will stop all other instruments from being
triggered and only allow the selected sound(s) to play.
Control
Drumazon has extensive midi control. Midi notes can be used to trigger each
individual sound. Alternatively, the internal sequencer can be used. This
can be set to play using Drumazon's internal clock or set to synchronize
perfectly to the host sequencer. Most of Drumazon's parameters can be
automated within the host and also controlled using MidiCC with an external
controller. An easy-to-use Midi Learn function allows reassignment of any
of the parameters.
Internal Sequencer
Within the internal sequencer, patterns are stored in 8 banks. Each bank
can store up to 12 patterns. Each pattern consists of 16 steps. Each
pattern location has a midi note number assigned to it. The patterns can be
edited traditionally using the step buttons or using the tap function. The
internal sequencer has various modes of operation. In Chain Mode, a range
of patterns are selected from the internal banks and are played through in
a circular fashion. Patterns can also be triggered freely by selecting the
corresponding midi note (for example, from a midi controller keyboard).
External controllers can be used in any mode to provide full control over
pattern playback. A Randomizer function is also provided within the
internal sequencer. It can be used to make simple changes to a pattern or
create a whole new one - ideal when your creativity needs a boost!
Randomizing can be applied to specific instruments and specific steps. The
frequency of occurrence can also be adjusted to give you just the right
amount. Files are stored in the XML format. This allows single patterns or
whole banks to be exchanged between users easily. XML allows the files to
be edited in a text editor. Ideal if you want to post or share a pattern on
a web site -just post the text!
Presets
The settings for each instrument can be stored in it's own preset. Each
instrument preset can be loaded in individually. This allows maximum
flexibility when putting kits of instruments together. A dedicated Preset
Manager is provided to help the user manage the sounds within their own
unique library.
