Typical articulations such as flam, humanize and roll add a natural feel to your rhythms. Sample formats such as Apple Loops, REX, Akai, EXS and many more can also be loaded, allowing you to use just about every drum sample available, as well as any samples and audio files that you create yourself.īattery 3 also offers a wide range of creative sound shaping features and effects, including filters, EQ, distortion, compressor and more. It comes with a comprehensive arsenal of over 100 electronic and acoustic drum and percussion kits, 6 of which are included in the demo version. With its multitude of features, we can easily recommend Battery to both newbie beatheads and old-school pros alike.īattery is a full-featured drum instrument that can be used both standalone and as a plugin in any popular music sequencer. Thankfully, Battery interfaces with RTAS, VST, Audio Units, Core Audio, Core MIDI, Dxi, ASIO, and Direct Sound, giving you plenty of options for hooking up to other programs. Our only complaint with Battery is that it really can't do much without a sequencer or some other MIDI device to drive it. We liked the free-form envelope controls, which make it a snap to custom-tailor sounds to your specs. Other controls include tune, saturation, bit control, and hertz. Also included is a mapping editor for layering up to 128 sounds together. Each sample cell has an enormous amount of sound-tweaking flexibility, boasting tools such as compressors, multimode filters, LFO, customizable envelopes, and resampling effects. Once you load sound into the matrix-style interface, the fun begins.

Built around a clean interface that has become the de facto standard for all products in Native Instruments' pro-audio line, Battery is approachable and simple to learn. Combining the ease of use of a traditional drum machine with the sound- sculpting prowess of a sampler, Native Instruments Battery 2.0 is one of the best software-percussion tools available.
