5 Key Features of Percussion Factory
Percussion Factory

A powerful 8-part percussion instrument and advanced sequence designer, Percussion Factory introduces an innovative approach to percussion pattern composition. Discover the power of Percussion Factory through 5 core features.

1. GENERATE
Percussion Factory offers a huge collection of sounds, presets and sequences. Use the Generate function to pick a random sound layer and an associated sequence for each of the 8 slots. Lock the sounds or sequences you like, and continue clicking generate until you find a pleasing combination. This allows you to explore infinite combinations and save your favorites as presets. It also generates a random name and allows you to undo the generation up to 5 times.

2. DECIMATE
Percussion Factory is the perfect tool for finding inspiration by experimenting with various effects and processing techniques. With the global Decimate macro or the individual ones on each track, you can completely deconstruct your sequence and quickly create multiple variations. Mapped to the modwheel or any CC, you can decimate in real-time to create versatile and evolving grooves.

Whether you're looking to discover new sounds and textures or save time and effort when working on a project, the Suggest feature is definitely worth exploring.

4. USER SAMPLES
You can expand the 1000+ layers Percussion Factory library by importing your own samples onto any slot by drag-and-drop, so you can take advantage of all the features of the sound engine with the exception of auto-align. For a natural rendering, you can add dynamics, and smooth or random filters. Although the Auto-Align feature is not supported for user samples, you can use the manual Offset parameter to perfectly align them.

5. GROOVE
One of the most useful functions to finalize a preset and give it a very natural sound is Swing. You can select one of the included grooves and morph between the perfectly aligned rhythm of the sequencer and the groove and create the perfect feel for your production.
