Dr. Beat Box is a retro drum module inspired by the iconic drum machines of the 1970s and early 1980s. It includes 35 drum kits featuring sounds from rare analog beatboxes and lesser-known mid-80s machines. Classic models such as the Korg Mini Pops, used by Jean-Michel Jarre, and the Korg KR-55, favored by Depeche Mode, are part of the collection. The BOSS Dr. Rhythm DR-55, heard on tracks by The Cure, is also represented, making Dr. Beat Box an ideal tool for recreating vintage electronic rhythms.
In addition to the extensive drum kits, Dr. Beat Box offers 60 MIDI drum loops inspired by the artists and electronic genres of the 70s and 80s. These loops provide ready-made rhythmic patterns that capture the era's distinctive groove and feel. The module is compatible with GM MIDI standards and supports velocity-sensitive playing, allowing for expressive drum performances. Its user-friendly interface ensures easy navigation and quick access to sounds, making it suitable for producers seeking authentic retro beats.
Dr. Beat Box requires a 64-bit VSTi or AUi host and runs on Windows 8.1/10 or macOS El Capitan through Mojave. It demands modest system resources, including a quad-core CPU and at least 4 GB of RAM, while occupying just 59 MB of hard drive space. Paired with complementary tools, this drum module provides a comprehensive solution for crafting vintage drum tracks and enriching retro-inspired music productions.
