About
Polytec Drum Machine started as a small idea — to have the sound and feel of analog drum machines in a software format.
The initial result is a 8-channel sample-based instrument built around recordings of actual hardware. But it’s not just a static sample player — the sounds are modulated with carefully designed controls that make it feel alive, responsive and versatile as possible.

* Audio demos are recorded directly from the plugin and some of them are processed with a very subtle reverb to show you more of what's possible to achieve easily with the tool.
