Resampled through cassette decks, tape reels, vinyl cuts, studio rooms, guitar amps, and colorful processing chains, DNA delivers drums with grit, texture, and a distinct sonic fingerprint.

Drums with identity
DNA goes far beyond clean, clinical drum machine tones – it explores how these drums behave when creatively pushed, warmed, worn, and reanimated.
Transients have extra punch and grit. Drums breathe, shimmer, and pop with personality. Crackle, saturation, space, and harmonic texture are woven into each sample, giving your tracks a distinctive voice.
Over 40 drum machines were transformed, re-amplified, and reimagined to reveal hidden nuances within familiar circuits. The result is an expansive, cohesive palette that’s both musical and fun.
Ready to create
Inside Triaz or Triaz Player, DNA’s 350+ presets let you explore, layer, and sculpt drums with immediacy and precision. Whether you’re building powerful techno grooves, snappy pop rhythms, lo-fi house, experimental percussion, or rich electronic textures, DNA adapts to your creative vision.
Drum machines never age – they evolve. DNA captures that evolution, giving you a library that feels as expressive today as the hardware that inspired it.
Shaping the sound
From punchy tape saturation and dusty lo-fi cassette decks to vibrant live rooms, vinyl, amps, and more, DNA embraces imperfection.
Each processing method adds its own distinctive texture, warmth, and energy, transforming over 40 drum machines into a playground of drums brimming with life, vibe, and musical nuance.
Vinyl
Cut to 12” vinyl using a Neumann VMS-70 lathe, these drums carry subtle crackle, harmonic warmth, and natural compression – a tactile, unmistakable quality.
Tape
Printed through classic analog tape machines – from the rich warmth of a Studer A80 to the crisp clarity of an Ampex ATR-102 – these drums gain natural saturation, rounded transients, and subtle harmonic glow.
Cassette
Processed through cassette decks, these drums gain grit, weight, color, and a lo-fi charm that injects each hit with subtle wobble, nostalgia, and punch.
Room
Re-recorded in world-renowned live acoustic spaces with boutique microphones, these drums inherit natural reflections and subtle reverberation, adding depth and realism – blurring the line between electronic and acoustic.
Lofi
Experimental, heavily compressed room mics, playful processing, creative resampling, and tube saturation emphasize grit and texture, giving beats attitude and a distinctively lofi sonic signature.
Amp
Drums resampled through vibey guitar and bass amps and recaptured with curated microphones gain harmonic richness, mid-range saturation, and dynamic energy that sits front and center in the mix.
