Product Information
- Interaction Upgrade, Play with Instinct - Donner Essential D1 Drum Machine blends two workflows into one machine. Both finger drumming and step sequencing can switch freely. It is easy to switch between two workflows, which makes it incredibly straightforward for you to produce music.
- Color-Coded UI Design, More Intuitive Use - Each Essential D1 Beat Machine track is assigned a unique color. Your visual memory will be strengthened after repeatedly operating through the 16 RGB backlit beat pads and 4 RGB faders, and you can perform with instinct finally. Meanwhile, the LCD screen and 5 touchable endless encoders are your useful assistants! The parameter's value will be displayed on the LCD screen directly when touching the encoders.
- Luxurious Configuration, More Sound Capabilities - Essential D1 Synthesizer features a robust sound engine that allows you to create and manipulate sounds in various ways. There are 12 tracks, each with 1 to 2 specifically designed effects, two send effects (Delay + Reverb), and a Compressor on the Master Channel.
- Sounds and Patterns from Professional Team - Collaborating with the world-class sound design label "Loopmasters", the contents on Essential D1 are ideal for electronic music, especially for House & Techno style music. You can also import your samples into the machine via Donner Control software to open up even more possibilities and be more creative with your production. The internal 4GB memory can hold most of your sonic treasure.
- More than A Drum Machine - The Essential D1 can be a standalone beat machine. And the AUX IN connection makes it a good partner of our rewarding Essential B1 Synthesizer. You can pair it with your other devices to extend your setup. The full-size MIDI I/O lets you do it more easily. Just forget about your annoying adapters.
