SR-202 is a sample-based drum machine plugin designed to streamline beat production by allowing users to load up to 16 WAV or AIFF samples directly onto individual pads. Its intuitive front panel makes sample loading straightforward, while the ability to save and load complete session states ensures efficient workflow between projects. Compatible with both PC and Mac, SR-202 supports full sample exchange, enabling seamless collaboration across platforms.

With 64 dynamically assigned voice channels and four choke groups, SR-202 offers flexible control over drum sound layering and muting behavior. Each pad can be assigned to stereo or one of four mono outputs, providing extensive routing options. The plugin features multi-stage envelopes for filter, amplifier, and pitch modulation, combined with a switchable low pass/high pass filter. Additional sound-shaping tools include distortion and bitcrusher effects applied before filtering, allowing for creative tonal variations.

SR-202’s comprehensive control set includes parameters for level, pan, choke group, output routing, pitch adjustment, and modulation depth, among others. MIDI CC automation supports detailed real-time control, with each pad responding to individual MIDI channels and controllers. The plugin comes with over 15 ready-to-use drum kits, spanning classic, experimental, analog-style, and percussive sounds, making it a powerful tool for producers seeking a wide palette of drum textures.
