According to our drum machine expert
Program complex drum rhythms with the Arturia DrumBrute. The drum computer is equipped with 17 analog sounds that you adjust completely to taste. You have the choice of 2 kick drums, 1 of which you can use as bass. A Steiner Parker filter is located on the output channel of the drum computer. You use this filter for filtering high or low frequencies. This makes the sound dull and powerful. You program drum rhythms up to 64 steps long and you set the length separately for each drum track. This makes it possible to program poly rhythms. With the randomizer function you benefit from musical coincidences. Do you want to feel the rhythms more humanly? Then add some swing with the swing function.

Very good sounds with which you can make anything. In conjunction with a DAW you can use the separate outputs to, for example, only put a Bass drum to your mixing console. This will then be automatically removed from the Mix. Polyrhythms is great because it gives you the opportunity to play a 3/4 time like blues. You select polyrhythm and specify 12 as the end note. Really great! The repeater and effects give great results, especially in live performance. The synchronization can be done via internal clock but also via USB, MIDI and an external clock. This allows you to start various equipment at once and have it run synchronously via, for example, USB. The disadvantage is that the information about this device is very limited. It turns out that the Mix output is not XLR but just mono. So you can't play with the panning. That's not bad at all with a drum machine, but it's just weird that the separate outputs are stereo again... The last minus is the Arturia brand. I have the feeling that the service, if you need it, can be a bit stiff. When asking a question and indicating some information to Arturia, I was warmly thanked from America for the information and that my question would be further handled by Arturia Benelux. Unfortunately I haven't heard anything from them at all. Even after several emails I have not received an answer anymore.

Great device for making nice beats. Especially without using a computer properly.
