Isotonik Studios have something rather tasty from Daan Pothoven: a unique and special Max for Live drum synthesizer good for kick and all your percussive needs. Here's what they tell us about it:
We were just about to put up the decorations and start winding down for the Holidays when the inbox pinged with a message from Daan, he'd been working on a MaxforLive Drum Synth for the last six months and having spoken to Pete of Surreal Machines we were delighted to get the referal.
A quick exchange of emails and a gaze at some screenshots and we couldn't wait to get our hands on this beast of a device, dissapoint it didn't! From first play ULTRAKICK is easy to get to grips with, yet it's depth of tweakability will give you hours of pleasure in creating a wide range of percussive sounds.
