Selecting the perfect drum break for your project is now an intuitive, and enjoyable experience. Across a range of 75 included presets, Bloom Drum Breaks Lite offers seamless keyboard control for triggering and tweaking sounds, while the four macro controls deliver immediate effects processing.
How it Works
Start in your desired tempo, choose a preset, and trigger one of 14 bpm-synced drum loops spread across two octaves. White notes set off drum samples and loops, while black notes alter properties like playback speed and pitch, as well as trigger custom drum sequences and effect modulation. Four powerful macro controls govern a specialized chain of effects, fine-tuned to the diverse drum samples that form the instrument.
The Main Page
There are 56 unique drum samples included, with each of the 75 presets being built from a unique combination of these samples, phrases and effects settings. The phrases have been custom-built using the Phrase Player found in the full version of Bloom Drum Breaks and can be triggered by one of the five dedicated phrase keys A-E. The Phrases aren't just about triggering rhythms – they are also tools for sculpting and modulating effect properties, enabling each preset to produce a vast spectrum of rhythmic textures.
Bloom Drum Breaks Lite includes three bespoke effects: Saturation, for adding warmth and character; Noise, for textural layers and grit; and Dynamics, for precise control over the punch and presence of your beats. These effects modules offer integral processing for reimagining and shaping your drum breaks, presenting the essential controls upfront for quick editing on the fly.
