Puremagnetik have released Foam | Bass Drum Tape, a bass drum sculpting synth, available at the intro price of $9.00, increasing to $20.00 after the promotion. A subscription service is also available.
Foam is a low-end machine, designed for detailed bass drum sculpting. It is an analog-style bass drum synthesizer with a dub-inspired delay and tape saturation. Foam can be used as a standalone drum voice but is also perfect for low frequency support and drum replacement on existing recordings.
The synthesis section is divided into two sound engines allowing you to sculpt its tonal balance from purely electronic to acoustic bass drums. Additionally, you can create hybrid drums that classic drum machines lack. For instance, you can create an 808-style sustain portion with an acoustic-style beater attack.
The delay section is inspired by tape dub echoes with separate sections for delay time, feedback, mod and analog tape compression/saturation.
Foam has been specifically tailored to deliver only musical results. With a dedicated set of macro controls, all parameter dependencies have been programmed under the hood. That means, no matter how you tweak the controls, you will always get a solid drum sound.
Foam is available to PC and Mac users (VST2, VST3 and AU).
