PULSE //
DRUMS FROM SCRATCH
Every hit in Pulse is synthesized, not sampled. Build a kit pad by pad from noise and physical models, or describe one and start from there.
“Cold 4x4 techno kit, metallic snare, damped kick”
Inside
What each pad can do
Every pad gets its own engine, so you can tune drum heads, metal and noise directly.
Kit Browser Matrix
Browse kits, or describe one and get a new .pulsekit.
Per-Pad Engine Selection
Put any engine on any of the 16 pads.
Physical Resonator Block
Virtual drum heads with tension, air damping and wood models.
Continuous Velocity Morph
No multisamples. Every hit is synthesized, so it changes with how hard you play.
Dynamic Envelope Slopes
Linear or exponential decays, from tight claps to long resonant toms.
Custom .pulsekit export
Save a kit as a .pulsekit file to share or back up.
Sketch
Describe a kit
Describe it
‘Crisp’, ‘glassy’, ‘hits like a truck’.
It tunes the pads
Sketch sets the attack, decay and physical model on each pad.
Then it’s yours
Velocity moves the sound, so repeated hits never sound identical.
Scope
One hit, drawn
A single hit, drawn from the settings next to it.
