## Description

Black Friday Sale — Now Live until Dec 2!

Machinedrum: "It's awesome, a lot of fun to work with and very easy to get something going. I love the sound presets too.“

Keyboards: „An extremely flexible beatbox with tons of character."

CDM: "Finally, Your Pocket Gets a Perfect Drum Synth: Elastic Drums for iPhone."

FACT Magazine: „One of the iPad’s best drum machines.“

Unlike most drum apps that rely heavily on samples, Elastic Drums uses drum synthesis models - making the sounds much more elastic and deeply tweakable. This approach allows for radical sound shaping, and when combined with the app’s versatile effects section, Elastic Drums becomes not just a beat-making tool, but a powerful instrument for sound design.

Features:
- 6 synth channels with 20 different percussion synth engines (kick, snare, hihat, clap, tom, wobble, fm, fm4, square, grain, synth, drone, sampler, 808 kit)
- 12 parameters for each synth engine
- Automation for each parameter via knob recording or velocity
- 4 send effect channels with 2x13 mono effects and 2x11 stereo effects
- Automation for all of the 8 possible effect parameters via xy pad
- Master effects (stutter, delay, compressor ...)
- 16 step sequencer for the 6 channels, each with it's own tempo multiplier & length
- Record audio and export to via Airdrop or Audioshare 
- Email audio recordings and presets
- Ableton Link synchronization and Ableton Live Set Export
- Audiobus, Audiobus Remote, Inter-App Audio
- Midi learn/Midi implementation of the most important parameters
