iDrum turns any Macintosh computer running Mac OS 10.3 or later into a
slamming beatbox ready to lay down your grooves, your way. From ambient
downtempo to bangin' hip hop to frenetic drum and bass, iDrum has got
your back (beat).


Easy. Fun. Dope.

That's how people from professional musicians to our parents (who
definitely aren't pro musicians) are describing iDrum. And that's great,
because we set out to make an easy, fun, effing dope drum machine.

Drum machine neophytes will get to experience the same magical 'instant
-gratification' fun that hooked an entire generation of musicians on the
hardware drum machines of yesteryear. Pros will find that there's simply
no faster, easier way to access and manage large unwieldly 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 native OS X application and as a plug-in
for Pro Tools, GarageBand, Logic, and Ableton Live. 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 Mac's computer
keyboard!


Samples Reloaded

iDrum comes with hundreds of dope drum samples arranged 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 up to 2MB in
size into iDrum's channel window.


Pattern-alooza

Store up to 99 patterns in a single iDrum file, along with all of the
drum sounds you used to make your beat.


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 :-))
