MIXOSAURUS DAW Drums updates Kit A to version 1.1

MIXOSAURUS is happy to announce the release of the MIXOSAURUS DAW Drums Kit A v1.1. This update brings a few new features to Kit A, significantly expanding its range of possible applications:

“ECO” Instrument Patches:
These have lower RAM requirements and faster loading times (down to 1/7 of the full patches). They will work even on “average” computers, and all programming you do with them will be 100% compatible with the full patches.

MIDI Translations:
Built-in ability to understand MIDI drum tracks of almost any format you can think of: Addictive Drums, BFD, DFH, EZ Drummer, General MIDI. Also included are dedicated Translations for Roland’s TD-3, TD-10 and TD-20, and for Yamaha’s DTXplorer, DTXpress I + IV and DTXtreme II models.

E-Drum Playablility:
The mentioned Translations work out-of-the-box with the factory settings of the listed e-drums - some other brands/models might need minor MIDI implementation adjustments, most of them will work right away though (like the TD-12 with the MIXOSAURUS TD-20 Translation selected)

Performance Tuning Options:
These allow to run Kit A at very small audio buffer settings (e.g. 64 samples at 44.1kHz sample rate).

Audio demo:
KIT A - Wild TD-12 Drumming
Here’s a little example of some wild TD-12 drumming to demonstrate how well it performs with an e-drum. The MP3 contains two passes of the same performance - the first is the “full mix” version with all tracks, Alternating Samples and some plugin processing active, while the second pass is the Kit A monitor sound that the drummer heard in his headphones while playing (”ecoT” patch, no effects added).
NOTE: NOT A SINGLE MIDI EDIT has been made to this track - it is exactly as it left the TD-12’s MIDI output. This is the pure Kit A’s TD-12 Translation.
