Kit Select

Build the drum kit of your dreams by choosing from 27 different kit pieces. From tight and focused to boomy and huge, the possibilities are endless!

Drums can be auditioned and selected in the "kit select" area. This is also where the pitch, envelope and MIDI dynamics can be adjusted. These parameters are individually controllable on each separate kit piece for maximum command of your drum sound!

Each channel can be multi-output routed to individual DAW channels in all popular recording software with our included templates.
