3 Controls
BEAT MACHINE has two main features, it’s extremely easy to use and it
has a huge amount of incredible sounding Hip Hop drum kits. You can
use the classic Hip Hop MIDI drum patterns included or you can
program/play your own. Once you have the pattern ready all you have to
do is scroll through the included kits until you find the one to suit your
beat.

Volume: Master volume level.


Reverb: Master reverb level.
Pitch: Master pitch level.
Pan: Master pan control.
Multi-Out Selector Switches: Channel output sector
Filter: Filter frequency selector
Presets: Previous/Next preset selection buttons. Click on patch name to
view entire drum kit list.
FIlter Type: Choose between None, Low Pass and Hi Pass.
Expansion Slot: Click to load expansion kits.
4 MIDI Drums
The kits are arranged very simply for each patch. Every kit starts at C1
(KICK DRUM) on your keyboard and each subsequent drum sound is
played on the adjacent white keys up to F Key (MISC). See Diagram
below.

PLEASE NOTE: Although our kits start at C1 your DAW (Acid, Ableton,
FL Studio etc) may start its C1 on a different key such as C2 or C3 etc. If
you hear silence when you press the C1 key on your keyboard once the
plug-in is installed, try a different C key until you hear the KICK DRUM.
That will be the start of the kits for your DAW.
5 Troubleshooting
If you are having trouble with Beat Machine please have a look at our
tutorial videos at:

http://www.youtube.com/c/dopesonix

If you require further support please email support@dopesonix.com

I CANT HEAR ANYTHING WHEN I PRESS C1 ON MY KEYBOARD:


As mentioned previously not all DAW’s are mapped to the same C1 key.
C1 on FL Studio maybe C2 on Ableton Live, so try pressing each of your
C keys on your keyboard or piano roll on your DAW until you find the
KICK DRUM. This will be the start of the kit.

WHAT DOES THE MULTI-OUT CHANNEL SWITCH ABOVE EACH


DRUM PAD DO:

The plug-in uses just a standard stereo output by default. This is perfect
for most users but if you require more flexibility with the sound, you can
route each drum sound to a separate channel/track on your DAW.

Simply change the switch to the required output that matches the tracks
on your DAW. Please check your DAW's own manual for the exact way
to use multi-out plug-ins.
