What Drumazon 2 does
The synthesis engine emulates the drum sounds of the original 909, and the developer presents it as a way to get the classic sound with additional options on top. Each of the 11 drum sounds has its own dedicated channel strip, where EQ and compression are set per instrument. Factory presets for each instrument are included, so a complete kit can be assembled quickly.
Two bus effect chains are available, built from a range of different algorithms, and the developer describes them as a way to get the exact sound and add grit. A master section with final processing is included, along with ready-to-use master presets.
Key features
- 909-style synthesis. The synthesis emulates the sounds of the original 909 and adds controls beyond the hardware.
- Per-sound channel strips. Each of the 11 drum sounds has a dedicated channel strip with EQ and compression.
- Two bus effect chains. Two bus effect chains built from different algorithms can be used to add grit and shape the sound.
- Master section. A master section with final processing and ready-to-use master presets rounds out the drum line.
- Trigger outputs. Analog-style trigger outputs can control external gear, including the short pulse sound often used in production.
- Crack, keygen and serial variants. The release is commonly searched as a keygen or serial key build, and the crack and activator variants appear in the same queries as the plugin name.
Use cases
- Building a kit from presets. Factory presets for each instrument let a producer assemble a complete drum kit before editing individual sounds.
- Generating fills. The fill button and randomizer produce pattern ideas that can be edited into a finished drum line.
Who it is for
Producers working in electronic dance music who want 909-style drum sounds with per-sound processing, bus effects and trigger outputs for external gear.
