There’s also a Roller mode for creating drum rolls and buildups.

4 individual audio outputs

Once you’ve created an awesome drum pattern on your drum machine and want to get it into your DAW software for processing or mixing, the last thing you want to do is have to record your drum pattern one drum sound at a time onto separate tracks — that gets old real fast. The Arturia DrumBute Impact offers 4 individual audio outputs (plus a master mix output), making it easy to record grooves into your computer as multitrack audio.

Create dynamic grooves with per-track swing, randomness, and accent

Swing and accent are two of the most common ways to add dynamic interest to a drum machine pattern. Accent is available on each track individually, as you’d expect. Swing can be applied to your pattern as a whole, and you can also apply different swing amounts to individual drum tracks if you choose. DrumBute Impact also has a randomness option, perfect for creating a more human feel — you can apply that globally or on a per-track basis too..
