iDrum

iDrum turns your PC into a powerful, simple-to-use
virtual drum machine. Build patterns with iDrum's
lightning-fast step sequencer, using included kits or
your own samples. From ambient downtempo to bangin'
hip hop to frenetic drum & bass, iDrum's got you
covered.


Easy. Fun. Dope.

It doesn't matter if you're a professional beat-maker
or if you've never touched a drum machine before.
iDrum lets you create drum patterns quickly, either
with its top-notch included kits or your own samples.
There's simply no faster way to build a beat on your
Mac or PC.

Drum machine newcomers will get to experience the
same magical instant-gratification that hooked an
entire generation of musicians on the hardware drum
machines of yesteryear. Pros will find that iDrum is
the perfect way to manage large unwieldy drum sample
libraries, get a phat beat going, and get it exported
into the format you need (and for less money than a
replacement pad for your MPC 3000).

Seamless integration


iDrum runs as both a standalone Windows application
and as a plug-in for Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton Live,
SONAR, Cubase and more. This means you can use iDrum
to create beats from right within your favorite music
software environment, perfectly synced with your
arrangement and always right where you left it when
you return to your project after your next world
tour.

Play that Beat

Don't feel like pushing buttons with your mouse?
Prefer to bang on things instead? iDrum has you
covered. Use record mode to tap out beats on an
attached MIDI keyboard, or even using your QWERTY
keyboard!


Samples Reloaded

iDrum comes with hundreds of professionaldrum
samples arranged in nearly two hundred iDrum files,
each with several preset patterns programmed by some
of the best beatmeisters working today. But these
beats are just the beginning+since you can mix and
match parts and samples between kits, and even load
your own AIFF and WAV drum samples, the possibilities
for beat creation are virtually endless. If you ever
run through all the drum sounds that come with iDrum
(and it will take you a while, believe us), you can
drag any AIFF or WAV file of up to 2MB in size into
iDrum's channel window.

Patterns Galore

Store up to 99 patterns in a single iDrum file, along
with all of the drum sounds you used to make your
beat. iDrum makes it simple to create tons of
variations on a simple pattern, and then chain them
together using Song Mode. Or simply trigger patterns
from your favorite host sequencer.


Parts

iDrum comes with dozens of part presets+a unique
feature that makes it incredibly easy to create
amazingly cool beats by simply mixing and matching
parts and samples+even if you've never programmed a
beat before. You can even add your own parts to
iDrum's part preset library so you never, ever, ever
have to program that syncopated disco hat figure
again (you know the one we mean).
