Softonic review

A free programmable drumming application

The Hydrogen Drum Machine is a pattern-based drumming program that is for advanced users. The sheer number of customizations this program allows is staggering, which also has the side-effect of making this tool very unintuitive. The graphical interface is based on QT 4.

PROS

  • Advanced and very sophisticated
  • Import sound samples in .au, .aiff and .wav formats
  • It has QT 5 support and OSC support
  • It has velocity automation and a full screen mode

CONS

  • Setting up is tricky, and adding midi devices is difficult
  • Device mapping requires advanced user knowledge
  • There is no pre-installed pattern generator
  • Auto-mutes instruments when it cannot find samples for it

Also available in other platforms

    Awesome!.
    Awesome machine. I only had a few hours to use it, but I still managed to come up with some really cool stuff. If you're lacking a drummer, this is a must have.
