COMING SOON - HEXDRUMS!

The industrial magic of Erica Synths techno weapons, fused with the DNA of Hexinverter’s mutant circuits is brought to life as the HexDrum – an analog drum machine forged out of deep respect for traditional designs with innovative improvements and the combined spellwork of its makers. Combining the range and flexibility of sounds by Hexinverter with the hands-on, no-nonsense layout and aesthetics of Erica Synths, the HexDrum offers the distilled, iconic essence of analog electronic drums in a practical form factor.

 The HexDrum has 10 sound sources, mostly based on the great sounding Hexinverter Mutant series of percussion modules: two kick drums for different (or combined) flavours – the BD9 and Bass drum, an optimized Mutant Machine, Snare drum, Clap, Rimshot and HiHats. To complete the setup, Erica Synths Cymbals are added, featuring 10 sets of crash and ride cymbal samples. All drums have individual outputs and for the master section they are panned in the stereo field before being sent into the Compressor and Master Drive, derived from the Mutant Glue. A special feature is the kick drum-controlled sidechain that can be used to animate drum patterns on the beat.

A hands-on and easy-to-program sequencer provides nuanced, up to 64-step pattern design, per-track accent, per-step microtiming, ratchets, rolls, per-step probability and a memory of 16 banks with 16 patterns each.


"Our plan was always to use the Mutant Drum DNA to create a next-level desktop drum machine. We began early work on one before the Pandemic. I'm so glad that the Erica Synths crew was able to carry out the vision and finish the dream!"  

- Stacy Gaudreau, Hexinverter Électronique
