Erica Synths has announced its analog drum machine HexDrums is now ready to pre-order.
The compact HexDrums instrument merges Erica Synths’ techno DNA with Hexinverter’s mutant circuits.
It features ten sound sources, mainly based on Hexinverter Mutant series of percussion modules.
The HexDrums has 10 sound sources, mostly based on the great sounding Hexinverter Mutant series of percussion modules: two kick drums for different (or combined) flavours – the BD9 and Bass drum, an optimized Mutant Machine, Snare drum, Clap, Rimshot and HiHats.
To complete the setup, Erica Synths Cymbals have been added, featuring 10 sets of crash and ride cymbal samples. All drums have individual outputs and in the master section, they are panned in the stereo field before being sent into the Compressor and Master Drive, derived from the Mutant Glue. A hands-on and easy-to-program sequencer provides nuanced, up to 64-step pattern design, accents, per-step microtiming, ratchets, rolls, per-step probability and a memory of 16 banks with 16 patterns each.
