Holding Shift + pressing any pad of the instruments = selecting the instrument without make a moise , so you don`t get any interruption in a live situation 💥

Another great way to loosen up your drums that didn't see it mentioned: you can adjust the timing on individual steps by pressing /holding down the step button & dialing the swing knob for just that specific step. This is similar to the microtiming adjustments you can do on step by step basis on Elektron devices. This is a great way to add feel to a song because you can make specific kick steps, snares steps, etc come just before or after the beat. This is different than just adding swing to the entire track or adding different amounts of swing to different tracks. As a drummer, i find this to be the best way to humanize a drum machine beat because its essentially what i would do when playing an acoustic kit to give a song urgency (slightly rush certain bass kicks) or make a song more in the pocket (slightly drag certain snare hits).

One of my favourite things to do with randomisation is to add a color step to a sequence with no underlying step or accent then, as I turn up the randomisation for that track, notes with color trigger unexpectedly - this works particularly well with the FM drum

Reading the manual is really worth it, there are quite a few "hidden gems". As an example, you can program not just steps and accent but also color (with or without accent) in the step sequencer, so you get 4 different sounds instead of two. Then there is the use of the strip as a roller, which can allow you to insert triplets and stuff like that.

The Impact on its own can be a little dry sounding but imo this is one of its greatest strengths. It just responds to any kind of filter or FX you throw over it so damn well. And the sequencer is so good, I'll even use it as an outboard beat maker when I'm using Sitala to sample stuff. I completely fell in love with this machine.

The analog distortion helps a lot too, especially when you mix the kick and the hihats together! I usually don’t use the multi output, but getting the snare out does sounds like the best option, especially after watching this video 😁

Thanks for the inspiration. The last few weeks have seen two developments in my use of the Drumbrute Impact. First, that MIDI out? Plug it into another synth. This isn't just a drum machine, it's a drum sequencer with melodic options. The second is using the unquantized sequencing for polyrhythms. I can pull off three over four and I'm working on getting a smooth five. I'm having fun.

Learning to swing individual notes (+ or - and how much) and to record in unquantized mode are mandatory. And irregular time signatures. Randomization is a nice feature leading to discoveries but it escapes one's control.
