DRUMMER


- SID drum machine

Prophet64 Drummer is a 909-style drum machine application that brings back the classic computer game drums from the 80s.

Forget sampling and regular drum synthesis.
The Prophet64 Drummer uses a classic Commodore 64 technique known as wave tables to create genuine retro C64 sounds.
By rapidly changing frequencies and waveforms, the timbres of a drum are put together and shapes the unique sound that really does not sound like anything else.

No doubt it adds drum flavor to a modern drum track!

The application has a total of eight sounds where bassdrum and snaredrum each have eight selectable sounds adding great versatility, -build the kit of your choice!

All 'knobs' have assigned keys and are turned with either joystick or potentiometer to shape the sound.
No mystery knowledge of C64 wave tables is needed to master the Drummer edition. Just start it up and adjust the sounds to how you want them with some good old knob-tweaking.
If you want to, you can even play the drums live on the C64 keyboard!

If you run the Drummer application on a standard C64, you have three voices of drum polyphony. Add an additional SID audio circuit and Drummer extends its polyphony to six voices fully assignable to each drum sound ("Voice map").

With a shuffle feature that adds swing to your track and an interactive pattern programming interface, this program will give you an out-of-this-world SID drum experience you wont forget!
Adding SID drum flavor to your drum track has never been easier, more creative and more fun than with the Prophet64 Drummer. Now watch out for that cowbell!
