About the download, iDrum is a slick program that needs less storage than the average program in the section Audio & Video. It’s very heavily used in some countries such as United States, Italy, and Germany.
iDrum turns your computer into a slamming beatbox ready to lay down your grooves, your way. From ambient downtempo to bangin’ hip hop to frenetic drum and bass, iDrum has got your back (beat).
iDrum runs as both a standalone native OS X application and as a plug-in for Pro Tools, GarageBand, Logic, and Ableton Live. This means you can use iDrum to create beats from right within your favorite music software environment, perfectly synced with your arrangement and always right where you left it when you return to your project after your next world tour.
Don’t feel like pushing buttons with your mouse? Prefer to bang on things instead? iDrum has you covered. Use record mode to tap out beats on an attached MIDI keyboard, or even using your Mac’s computer keyboard! Store up to 99 patterns in a single iDrum file, along with all of the drum sounds you used to make your beat.
iDrum comes with hundreds of dope drum samples arranged in nearly two hundred iDrum files, each with several preset patterns programmed by some of the best beatmeisters working today. But these beats are just the beginning — since you can mix and match parts and samples between kits, and even load your own AIFF and WAV drum samples, the possibilities for beat creation are virtually endless. If you ever run through all the drum sounds that come with iDrum (and it will take you a while, believe us), you can drag any AIFF or WAV file up to 2MB in size into iDrum’s channel window.
Drum comes with dozens of part presets — a unique feature that makes it incredibly easy to create amazingly cool beats by simply mixing and matching parts and samples — even if you’ve never programmed a beat before. You can even add your own parts to iDrum’s part preset library so you never, ever, ever have to program that syncopated disco hat figure again (you know the one we mean :-)).
