- The Drumbrute Impact is a Polyrhythmic Monster!
Today we're diving into the Drumbrute Impact, and the first thing I've discovered is what a polyrhythmic monster it is! The sequencer is pretty incredible, and combined with how it handles randomness, the potential for polyrhythmic jams is pretty much endless! Let me know what you if you have any tips or suggestions for me on the Impact, I'm pretty impressed with it so far! Enjoy the video :)

Super easy explanation of the poly rhythms feature, I'll be able to use that on my other machines
Thanks for watching!
Just bought the arturia drumbrute impact and absolutely love it.. thanks for the video, big help!
The step-repeat, randomisation, glitching fx and the distortion!!! For that price was mental...
and not only could you set a mastertempo across all patterns and enable the switch of patterns mid sequence juggling between all of them at will!!
but you could also set the individual drums to trigger their own polyrythms!!
Not to mention using the FM drum parameters in comination with the long decay of the kick to create some savage bass crunch!!
Best drum sequencer in the low price range and probably beats most of the medium range too!!! Hahaha
Yeah it's a beast!
I just want to say that your videos have been an awesome tool for me in my drum machine/sampler journey! I'm a keyboard player that is just getting into the drum synth world and these have just been incredibly helpful. Thanks! Keep up the good work!
Super fun and you explained it well. Glad you're enjoying your time with it.
Thank you!
i've got one of those- i will use these rad tips, thanks!
Have fun!
This is your specialty, seriously.
Thanks so much!
sehr sehr gut erklärt, verständlich und gut zu begreifen...danke...
holy THAT is what i was searching for!
What a nice Tool to Carey the beat 👍🔧
I see what you did there!
I've been playing with similar ideas on my MPC, it's a ton of fun
Extremely inspiring device. B.t.w. "color" can be used as additional accent - to mark steps in sequence.
Ah, good to know! Thanks :)
We should clarify what was traditionally called "polyrhythm" vs. poly meter. This demo is really poly meter. Polyrhythm is when different pulses occur over the SAME time period, for example "three against two" or "five against four".
This is really cool!
It is!
This machine can only shine under the hands of a drummer like Free Beat.
:D Thanks!
It is interesting to see how FeeBeat interacts with devices differently than I, a guitarist, do.
Polymeter vs polyrhythm. Polymeters are when you have multiple sequences of different lengths playing over the same grid/subdivisions where they only restart at the first common multiple, i.e. one sequence that's 3 beats long and one sequence that's 4 will only simultaneously start again 12 beats later. Polyrhythms are when you have multiple sequences that are the same length but subdivided differently, i.e. both sequences are 12 seconds long but one is divided into 5 equal parts (a note every 2.4 seconds) and the other 4 equal parts (a note every 3 seconds).
Starting to miss my DBI. I should look at getting another one of these days.
Neat. Definitely neat. And affordable-ish.
Yeah it's not an outrageous price by any means!
Always interesting to here your take on kit particularly drums, out of interest have you had an LXR or Drumlogue through your hands yet? I am still fettling my setup at the moment, I have a Deluge and Minilogue XD module, loads of fun and to be honest I have only skimmed the surface with them... I have one eye on drum machines but really should be looking at patchbays... Top content as ever, thanks. Alll best from Yorkshire UK 🖖🎶💯
Haven't had either of them, maybe someday though!
AWESOME VIDEO MAN, thank you showed me how to look to my drumbrute with a different view , just one question my tap tempo led is blinking to fast I hold and pressed the metrono botton and I choose 1/8 but still blinking so fast and the tempo is 120 at 1/16 notes, is this normal?
Damn it….now I need one again.
Do ittttt
👊🏻👽 Thanks
Thank YOU!
Here’s a short video I made a while back (on my second day with the DBI) where I clipped the sequence to 10 steps to get a 5/4 time signature ruclips.net/video/Lgc0hcCrvRQ/видео.htmlsi=PRjuB1_VlrS4aXhG
channelled your inner billy herrington on this one
Thanks for watching!
I don’t want to be a smartass but wouldn’t this be called polymetric? Anyway, great video
Heat
Thanks so much!
Instant RUSH Kick
Rule rules!
I want it!
It's a lot of fun!
Can it play bass for guitar jam
Hey man - have you noticed any discrepancy with the kick sound? Beat to beat, triggering it numerous times in a row, the “attack” changes on mine. I’ve read about others experiencing this and am curious if you have as well.
This is the joy of analogue gear and why people buy it. It feels alive because it never quite sounds the same. But I've never noticed my kick changing so drastically by itself that it's distracting
Was definitely an issue with mine. Arturo’s even acknowledged it and had me send it in. No fix tho. Oh well.
So..... when my BeatStep Pro arrives...
Have fun!
Add a sampler for perc and hats and away you go
I actually quite like the hats on the Impact haha.
@@FreeBeat no shame in the hats. I mean like breakbeat cuts or 909 style hats on top!
This or t-8 though?
Hi, Im not sure if my logic got it wrong but if you randomize everything the polyrhytm feature becomes irrelevant?! I see the polyrhythms useable for changing predictable rhythm. Nice video though
The Impact seems to actually contextualize the random placement of notes based on what is already there! So normally you'd be right, but it's a bit different with the Impact :)
@@FreeBeat Thx for the reply! I will probably understand better once I got the machine which I plan in the future. The most interesting feature for me seems to be the analog clock in. Have some ideas how to use it in creating interesting timings
@@FreeBeatthe random encoder impacts three things: the rhythmic pattern, the status of note events (step on/off), and the velocity of note events (accent on/off).
The random encoder has a range of 0-100%, with 0 having no effect on the music. But at 100% the rhythm, velocity and even existence of note data within the pattern will be entirely random.
I'm not sure what you mean by contextualize?
Lol, maesure
damn how do people make polyrythyms, i mean mentally. it is hard to grok
Yeah if you don't have any musical experience it can be kind of difficult. Try some really basic ones, like having your kick on beat one in a measure of 3, and your snare drum on beats 2 and 4 in a measure of 4 :)
This is easy compared to playing polyrhythms on an actual drum kit.
The original was good for this too.
Awesome!
Did Arturia really label it wrong? Polyrhythm? It still is polyMETRIC, not polyRHYTHMIC, the latter is a totally different story.
Yeah I kind of thought that was weird too. Although if you want to get super technical, polyrhythm vs polymeter is down to how music is notated, and since this only uses a sequencer instead of proper sheet music notation, it's not...entirely wrong I guess? Yeah I'm not really sure why they didn't just call it polymeter haha.
You have 64 steps at least. Could we do a 35 step bar for 5 over 7 and clock it really fast?
Yeah, I thought this was peculiar.
Was going to hit the dislike button. But since you don’t mind me hitting it. I chose not to. Haha ❤️
Just kidding! Thanks for the tips and tricks!
I got the Novation circuit Rhythm and was going to sell my DrumBrute impact. But the unit is just so complex with so many features and sounds great. I have to keep it! It’s a gem of a machine!
Dont sell it, master it ;)
If you grafted Bill Bruford's arms onto Buddy Rich, you're getting pretty close to what's happening here😂
Hahaha I can see Buddy glaring down the trumpet section as they struggle to follow along already!
Hummm sorry 😢
that was great
Thanks!
