Scramble: A random sequence of four one-bar patterns is generated internally
for each style/substyle/song section. “Scramble” generates a new pattern
order.
Shuffle: Shifts the second and fourth 16th note of a beat back by a freely
definable amount (100% = triplet rhythm).
Humanize: Randomly shifts all events backwards or forwards, or leaves them
unaffected. Note: these shifts are very subtle and not always immediately
perceptible!
Snare: Sets the snare stick style to “normal”, “side stick” (stick hits the rim
while resting on the skin) or “rim shot” (sticks hits the rim and skin
simultaneously). Exception: the snare’s quietest velocity level ( the "ghost
notes") is always “normal”.
Hi-hat: Sets the hi-hat sound to “soft” (fully closed) or to “hard” (half-open).
Exception: completely opened hi-hat (pop, type1, verse).
Ride: Sets the ride cymbal sound to “ride” (cymbal is hit on the rim) or “ride
bell” (cymbal is hit on the bell at the center).
Robota
The Robota is a four-part drum computer with virtual analog and
sample-based sound production. Virtual analog sound production means that
the sounds are synthesized in real-time, i.e. produced with a synthesizer to
recreate the typical analog sounds of classical drum computers, such as the
Roland Tr-808 and Tr-909, or more recent devices such as the Korg Electribe
