SPARK Vintage brings 30 legendary drum machines to the musician.
Intuitive and powerful, this software is much more than your typical sample player. By mixing high quality samples and virtual analog synthesis (based on TAE®), Spark Vintage manages to capture the unique soul of these instruments.
From the classic percussion sounds of the Roland CR-78 and Korg Mini Pops 7 to the heavy punch of the TR-series, all the top producers' boutique models are available in one single easy-to-use interface.
Add to this the lightning-fast workflow, in-depth tweaking possibilities, and live features of Spark, and you get a true must have for any demanding beat maker.
Spark Vintage features 30 legendary drum machines from the 60's, 70's and 80's.
All models have been carefully reproduced using two techniques : analog emulation (based on TAE®) for the analog circuits, and high resolution sampling of mint condition units for EPROM and PCM based drum machines. Each kit comes with pre-programmed patterns ranging from the original ones, to the most contemporary rhythms.
If you want to get hold of the classic beats that shaped countless hit records, while keeping a modern edge, it doesn't get any better than Spark Vintage Drum Machines.
