Here comes the third release of our new Groove Butter series.

The Rim features 75 different rimshot presets made from 1274 carefully recorded one shot samples. The drums are playable over a range of four octaves. All presets are velocity sensitive in a very musical way and also tuned.

We have recorded a lot of different drum machines in the last years and now selected some of the rare ones and run them thru our saturation, compressing, cleaning process and finally build a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying beat making experience for musicians and also the listeners. There are some totally clean and classic sounding rims and also some which we have hardly overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results to fill the toolbox for different music genres too.

Add some extra drama by using the pitch bend in combination with some of the useful effects you got here in a very handy and intuitive GUI design. You have the possibility to make the sound more epic and stereo by using the reverb, delay and flanger section. Here you can go real crazy if you want to. In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and high pass filters. On the left side of the instrument you got a few knobs to build up the total shape and mood of the drum sound by using tune, amplitude and pitch envelopes, a section to manage the speed of the sample and also a very useful transient shaper to add some extra attack and punch to the drums.
