Pluggotic has released TrueBlue, a Drum-Module for Kontakt sampled from the "mkII" version of an analog DrumSynth made in East Germany.
ToyBoy features eight drum channels with a total of 100 sounds: Bassdrum, Snare, HiHat, Clap, Percussion, Tom1, Tom2 and Cymbal.
"Old school" spirit and raw vibe of the drum synth, including subtle sounds drifting derived from analog circuitry and free-running oscillators, has been sampled and can be manipulated through a simple MIDI-Notes operated interface. Resulting drum kits can be played raw or treated with envelopes or FX, routed to individual outputs for multichannel operations (depending from availability) and stored as patches.
- S+S drum module for Kontakt 4.2.3 or newer versions.
- 100 sounds each with 8 randomly alternated samples.
- 800 24-bit 96k mono samples, 206MB (unlocked).
- mixer section and outputs assignment.
- stereo FX for snare/clap/hihat/cymbal/percussion.
- manual or midi-controlled user interface.
- host-automated controls with midi-learn.
- 10 preset kits plus 77 midi-patterns.
- Combinator template for Reason 3.0 and newer versions.
Price: £7.00.
