What IconDrum does
IconDrum is built around a library of 100 authentic sounds, each one drawn from the original machine it recreates. The raw sounds can be used on their own, and the produced kits give a finished pro sound straight away. Over 70 preset kits cover classic patterns and modern hybrid variations, so a session can start from a known groove. The developer presents the plugin as a tribute to the Oberheim DMX, a drum machine that shaped the sound of its era, and as a way to bring that character into current production.
Key features
- 100 authentic sounds. The library holds 100 sounds sampled from the original machine, with raw samples available next to the produced kits.
- Preset kits and MIDI files. Over 70 preset kits cover classic and modern hybrid styles, and over 70 MIDI files recreate many classic rhythms.
- Per-voice channel controls. Solo, Mute, delay send, reverb send, Pitch, Decay, Pan and HP/LP Gain are set separately for each drum voice.
- Three-slot master FX chain. The master section has three slots, each individually selectable from Distortion, multi-mode Filter, Compressor, EQ, Bitcrusher and Gate Phaser.
- GM map and MIDI control. A General MIDI map assigns the sounds to standard notes, and MIDI CC response is programmable through MIDI Learn.
Use cases
- Building hybrid kits. The raw sounds and FX chain can be combined with the produced kits to shape a drum pattern for current productions.
