Sound Sources Excite Audio directly recorded the signature sound directly from analogue drum synthesisers that soundtracked the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s. Then, in order to emulate the iconic tones of ‘sample-based’ grooveboxes, they recorded and processed live drums using analogue hardware units and digital mixing techniques, similar to the techniques used in the creation of these drum machines. Some of the sound sources include: Vintage analog drum machines known for their warm and punchy sounds Early digital rhythm units that defined the beats across decades. Unique percussive tones from rare electronic keyboards and devices Modern drum synthesisers offering cutting-edge electronic percussion Textured loops and one-shots crafted through sound design techniques Excite Audio · Bloom Drum Machine Presets How it Works Start in your desired tempo, choose a sample bank or preset, and trigger one of 14 bpm-synced samples spread across two octaves.
