Sound character and controls

Drip's samples range from subdued and minimal to aggressive and sharp, which makes it suited to sparse electronic arrangements as well as more forceful material.

Each instrument includes layer-specific controls for swell, attack, release, tightness, tuning and vibrato, along with articulation selection and an optional sub-synth waveform underlay for tonal reinforcement. A flexible LFO system offers selectable waveforms, assignable targets, tempo sync and fade-in control. Thirteen filters can be modulated by velocity, mod wheel, expression, aftertouch, key position or the step sequencer.

FX rack and mixing

The built-in modular FX rack provides 27 DSP effect modules that can be assigned across eight slots in any order. The modules include phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cabinet simulators, compressors, EQ and rotator, among others.

The rack also includes convolution reverb with custom rooms, halls, chambers and FX environments. The mixer offers pro features and deep customizability for shaping each drum kit within a mix.
