Description

Algorthimic drum machine!

For kicks you can also reassign each drum to hit a different MIDI note, this makes it quick an easy to swap drums around but more importantly means to can just skip some altogether, it's kinda fun to play around with can be pretty hypnotic with some FX, there is arandom shuffler too to swap the drums around, keep hitting it until you find what you are after, MIDI key presses also offset the pattern slightly and encoders add fills

Also try Bangaz with regular instruments too, reassigning each drum to harmonics to make some interesting apreggios to be had there

!! NOTE: you need the latest Ableton 12.2 for this as it uses the new V8 jsinterp from Max9 !!

But... if you don't have Max4Live or have an older Ableton Live version no worries - Kasm is WebAssembly so it also runs on a regular web browsers too!

Documentation, instrument patch editors and so on is all here:

Pro (paid) version adds 350 unique drum patterns and 4 encoders to vary each of them, you can get it here:
