Drumvolution by Wave Alchemy - A Brief Overview

[@codenamedashman1541]

Love the improvements and the new module. Merry Christmas to everyone at Wave Alchemy! 🎄

[@DavidBoura]

Imho the best sampled based drum machine on the market with Revolution. Judging from the synth drums free pack they offered months ago, i personally think their samples are also the most seriously crafted. (i have no affiliation of any sort with Wave Alchemy, just blabling alone).

[@MathHammer]

Wonderful. Congratulations.

[@mrnelsonius5631]

I have the Ableton live version of this and still might get this dedicated plugin version even though the samples are the same. Using drum rack takes a LONG time to load because Ableton has to load a thousand samples for each one. But the sound quality and flexibility of this library is INCREDIBLE so it’s been worth it. I imagine the dedicated VST doesn’t have the long loading issue, and since these samples are ending up on all my tracks it will probably be worth it

Make a hardware version ........ ^_^ Seems like a kick ass plugin! Great patterns in this video! I could have watched this for an hour! Well done :)

[@cnsengineer]

Thanks! Looking forward to the details videos.

[@pabz5602]

We are ready for you guys to comeback with something new or an update to Drumvolution/Bass Synth? 🤔

[@BenCaesar]

Is it possible to load own samples? I respect the sound library but it's always nice to load your own

[@wave-alchemy]

Hi Ben, Unfortunately not. However we do have a new drum instrument coming out this year that does allow sample import (and it also has a brand new factory library too that we've been working on for several years!)

[@BenCaesar]

@@wave-alchemy hey thanks for the reply, great! Discovering more about your plugins will keeping an eye out 🔥

[@EclipsianVanadis]

How does it handle odd time signatures like 13/16 or 7/8?

[@fabiangarciakh]

We can send the sounds to different outputs into the ableton live or other daw?

[@wave-alchemy]

Hey Fabian, Yes, that is correct. You can route each channel / drum sound from Drumvolution to a separate mixer channel within your DAW. That applies to Ableton and all other DAWs. If you have any further questions, feel free to send us a support question via our contact form on our website and I'd be happy to help and answer any other questions you may have.

[@SamSilk]

is there an offset parameter for each drum hit?

[@wave-alchemy]

Yes, each individual drum layer features an offset control :)

[@SamSilk]

@@wave-alchemy is it possible to have a negative value on it like in Motu BPM? (I mean having the note triggered before the grid subdivision?)

[@wave-alchemy]

The sequencer has a slop function offset which can kind of do this. You can offset each step. The sequencer also can do polyrhythmic sequencing, and you can drag and drop all MIDI into your DAW sequencer for further tweaking if need be.

[@SamSilk]

Very interesting. i use Maschine and Cubase Drum Edit / Drum maps, but I've been a fan of your products for a while so I guess I'm gonna watch a few videos to better understand this Drumvolution of yours!

[@saardean4481]

very nice but very expensive

[@mrnelsonius5631]

I have the Ableton integrated version of this (which has some issues BUT) this sample library is 100% worth the cost if you frequently work with electronic drum samples. The best I’ve found so far. Even on acoustic drum kit tracks, I end up doubling it with kicks and snares from Drumvolution cuz they sound so good in a mix

[@Free2010Spirit]

wy wy. wy NKI Format ????

[@MrMissingReel]

Without a upgrade offer for Evolution users? Paying full Price instead? Thank you....but I´d rather not!

[@owenthomas6337]

You're doing them a bit of a dis-service, I think; if you log into your WA account, you'll see Drumvolution available in your downloads page of your account. At zero cost. So, I guess that's an early Merry Christmas from Wave Alchemy.

[@MrMissingReel]

@@owenthomas6337 That´s exactly what I thought......but sadly that isn´t the case....just my recently bought Evolution.....that´s why I´m kind of pissed!

[@wave-alchemy]

Drumvolution is totally free for all existing 'Evolution' owners. We sent out an e-mail about this to all Evolution customers two days ago :) Send us an e-mail via our website if you missed this e-mail.

[@MrMissingReel]

@@wave-alchemy That Information was pretty hidden in that e-mail ;-).....nevertheless nothing was deposited to my account yet. I send you an e-mail....

[@MrMissingReel]

@@Helena081107 0 No doubt about it.....I guess they just forgot or overlooked it 😉 No Problem! Merry Christmas

[@Daddytang67]

is there a way to just use the samples without the seq?

[@wave-alchemy]

Yes, absolutely! All of Drumvolution's drum voices / drum sounds respond to MIDI notes, and you can simply bypass the sequencer and sequence directly from your DAW (or play live). You can also drag and drop MIDI directly from the instrument :)
