Modal Electronics CRAFTrhythm 8-Track Drum Sampler Kit

Description

The Modal CRAFTrhythm is an 8 track drum sampler kit with a 16 step sequencer which can be assembled (without need to solder) in less than 10 minutes. The CRAFTrhythm can store up to 64 16bit mono samples with a sample rate of 44.1kHz and using the CRAFTapp users can upload their own sounds. Each track features a mixer, sample select, a tune control with 3 pitch modes, low pass resonant filter and 3 envelopes for amplitude, filter and pitch. 16 preset patterns can be stored on CRAFTrhythm with up to 16 part pattern chaining along with 8 kits that recalls track parameters.

Features

• 8 track drum/percussion sampler kit with a 16 step sequencer, requires no soldering or electronics skills, tools or knowledge
• Can store up to 64 16-bit mono samples with a sample rate of 44.1kHz, and using the CraftApp users can upload their own samples
• Mixer stage per track with level and pan controls
• Low-pass resonant filter per track with a dedicated Attack-Hold-Decay envelope
• Amplitude Attack-Hold-Decay envelope per track
• Tune control with 3 different pitch modes – SPEED, STRETCH and SHIFT
• SPEED alters the pitch by playing the sample faster or slower
• STRETCH selects the number of steps the sample will be stretched to fit into, allowing for tempo matching for looped samples
• SHIFT activates a pitch shifting algorithm that maintains the same sample length along with a dedicated Attack-Hold-Decay envelope, which works well with samples containing melodic content
• 16 recallable patterns with up to 16 part pattern chaining
• 8 recallable kits that store the per track parameters for sonic changes on the fly
• Global tempo and tap tempo with a step division for semi-quavers, quavers and quarter notes
• Pattern groove control that up to half way increases the swing/shuffle amount and then provides 8 preset grooves that allow for triplets and other non-conventional rhythms
