Design your own drums with Steinberg Backbone, a virtual instrument plug-in that offers a customizable and realistic drum kit with AI-generated patterns and performances via DrumGAN. With the ability to layer up to eight samples, resynthesize and shape audio subtractive style, and decompose samples into tones and noise, the rhythmic and sonic possibilities are nearly endless.
You can directly export audio for clip-based production workflows, export individual layers, or simply export the last note played. The plug-in provides 250 handcrafted presets and allows you to add up to eight FX, including distortion, reveb, delay, and more. You get two fully routable buses for mixing and adding FX. With the DrumGAN generator, you can create new drum sounds from scratch, let AI handle resynthesis, layering, decomposing, and more, or generate custom variations as a perfect creative launching pad. Backbone is available in VST3, AU, and AAX formats and supports macOS and Windows computers.
It also analyzes samples, can replicate them, and can create countless variations. DrumGAN is the perfect addition to Backbone for crafting new drum sounds entirely from scratch while staying in your favorite sample-editing environment.
