Rhythm Machines

Rhythm Machines for Ableton Live brings you another expanded library of 150 brand new Impulse drum kits for your electronic music projects. These Impulse drum kits should fit well into most genres and musical styles.

The Rhythm Machines Live Pack:

150 specially designed Impulse drum kits.
808 drum samples in 24-bit quality.
17 example Live sets.
Ableton Live Ready for an easy install.

Audio and Midi effects

Above all that we have added more options directly available through the 16 macros to give you a much broader range of control over the final sound of each Impulse kit. By automating these macros or tweaking them in real time you can add diversity and a less mechanical feel as you design your entire drum track for the mix using just one rack.

With the remixer macro you now have 64 kit variations that can be applied to each midi drum clip you feed it. There is also an improved specially designed humaniser to help you get your groove on which can add controlled, yet random dynamic breaks, stutters and glitches to your drum track. By adding just a little bit you will get small variations and hits, but turn it up for more chaos as much as you like in your mix.
