## Description

EGDR909 Drum Machine Lite by ElliottGarage recreates the vintage 80s drum machine vibe with a clear, analog-inspired interface. It offers a 16-step sequencer, 48 programmable rhythm patterns, and drumkit parameter controls for tuning, decay, and snappiness. Create beats, play along with tracks, and sync with your setup using Inter‑App Audio, Core MIDI, and clock MIDI.

This is the Lite version—unlock all advanced features via in‑app purchase. Save patterns, use Pattern Write and Pattern Clear, explore Song Mode, and tweak swing and tempo. It also supports Inter‑App Instrument, Core MIDI, Audiobus, Ableton Link, and exports via iTunes, email, or Audio Copy, with AU3 support for compatible hosts.
