  • Playing with Massive Analog Drums
    The Drumbrute Impact has an absolutely fantastic sequencer, but a lot of folks seem divided on it's analog drum sounds. I thought it would be fun to run all of those sounds through the Korg NTS-1 to try and make them a bit bigger, and in my opinion, it worked! I can't wait to run the drums as individual outs and use multiple effects with this awesome drum machine. Enjoy the video :)

    at minute 9:29, I've have never seen anyone, in any other live performance (or youtube video), do what you did. That was really cool! Analog, digital and physical.

    Can't wait to see the vid with individual outs through effects. That's a possible selling point for me. Being able to run each sound through wildly different effects for some bizarre drums, even if they wind up sounding more like an industrial manufacturing plant than anything you'd call drums... that's something I could use in my setup.

    Sweet. I've had a love/hate relationship due to its minimal sound sculpting, barely there velocity options, and lackluster cowbell and toms, but I had a hunch external effects might liberate it a bit. Thanks for renewing my affection

    Haha, can’t wait for you to connect the NTS1, Zoom ms70, smpl trek, XFM and what more effects you got!? Gonna look real fun:) And I’m being more and more tempted to buy this! I had my eyes on Volca Drum, wish you could do a comparison video. For just a little bit more this seems like a much better value. But I wanna build a Volca orchestra.

I've recently gotten an OBNE Reverse and I need to try it on the DBI. Reverse reverb on hi-hats gives a great sizzle.

    If I remember correctly, you can change in the Midi control center how the mute behaves. Then you can step out the mute function and the mute status remains, you can play as you want, and then unmute it with shift+mute.

    Don't know about a Drumbrute Impact per se, but is gradually considering adding another drum machine (I have a RD-6, but mainly use a DAW for percussion tracks) if not a sampler to load various drum kits into. Then again, I've also been pondering actually learning some sound design to craft my own analog kick with my Korg Monologue or one of my soft synths such as the MS-20.

      You can, but all of the inputs I have are stereo so I was only getting one side of the audio coming in, at least I think that's how it works haha.
