Full Description
View Full DescriptionPattern Control
The MFB Tanzbar Analog Drum Machine can be used to create full drum patterns for songs. Using the fill-function, patterns can be chained for longer sequences. In addition, every pattern offers A/B variations that can be switched manually or automatically for further flexibility. Also, Tanzbar allows saving 16 flam and roll-variations.
Easy Creation of Polyrhythmic Structures
The step-length is controllable per instrument, allowing easy creation of polyrhythmic structures. Possible resolutions are 32th and 16th steps as well as 16th- and 8th triplet-steps. The shuffle amount can be continuously controlled globally and per instrument. Each instrument offers three accent intensities. Add the bend-function to create glides and LFO-like sweeps for bass drum 1/2, snare drum and toms 2/3.
Pre-Listen and Program Patterns
In addition to the percussion-instruments, Tanzbar offers addressing external instruments using its two CV/Gate outputs; one being able to control dynamics via a third CV-output. The same tracks are routed to the internal bass- and melody-synthesizer voices. An ideal solution to pre-listen and program patterns without any need for external equipment.
Control of External Instruments
The CV/Gate-sequencer offers a range of three octaves and is programmable using two methods. All parameters are output via MIDI, allowing control of external instruments. The drum-computer can be synchronized via MIDI- and clock-signals. An additional MIDI-input is available to control further functions, such as microshift (planned for future update). In addition, an editor is planned. Finally, Tanzbar not only offers a master volume knob but individual level controls and mute-functions per instrument. The unit provides a stereo output as well as twelve individual outputs.
