Nemesis is a Beatmaker drum machine from UJAM aimed at producers working in dark, heavily processed styles. Its drum sounds are designed to be aggressive and futuristic, and its library covers 60 plug-in presets, 10 drum kits and 30 styles. The sound design was led by drum and bass producer and DJ Rusher, and the instrument is suited to cyberpunk, sci-fi and game-score textures.
The drum sounds in Nemesis are built to be aggressive and futuristic. The 12 mix presets apply different types of distortion and compression to produce beats that are tough and punchy.
The mix presets are complete multi-bus mixing setups, with several effect chains per channel. This means you can load a preset and get a finished, processed sound without building the mix from scratch.
Nemesis has two special controls for shaping the sound. Hypercharge uses multi-band distortion for a more aggressive, electrified tone, and it can be pushed hard, especially when combined with the mix presets.
Pressurize uses multi-band compression to condense the signal and help the drums cut through a mix. Together, the two controls cover both extreme distortion and tight, dense dynamics.
