This is the FOURTH instalment of the DRIFT series of instruments.
Simple at the front, complex behind the curtain. The business end is just 4 large knobs: Grist, ADSR, Morph and Space combine multiple functions for uncomplicated and intuitive sound design. A minimal interface beneath which lurks a maximalists desire to warp, bend and squash millions of new sounds into the aether.
New features for DRIFT 004...
POLYPHONIC/MONO/LEGATO mode - with portamento and super detuned girth.
Two bipolar ducking modulators that wrangle a single low note into a swelling, writhing behemoth of filthy beat-synced undertow. Tiny changes in depth and pulse width make subtle organic changes, and tempo automation brings pulses to life.
DRIFT 004 is a monstrous splurge of the low sloppy pulse of Haxan Cloak/Bobby Krlic, Ben Frost and Jóhann Jóhannsson, but it also a fantastic source of exotic leads, organic pads and weird keyboards like no other.
