they do too much custom editing on each break that wouldnt work to just load it and make it sound like they do atleast not all the way but i bet with machine learning it will be possible soon, if u ever heard arcade kit maker? it only sounds good if you have your sample the right length and the right transients other wise it sounds like trash. but i hope they make another one where you can load your own drums, that would be so fresh!
Yeah man, especially as it only has 112 loops built in. I mean I'm sure that's still a LOT of scope for creativity given all the chopping and combination you can do not to mention effects, but it still feels a bit limited.
Yeah, I am thinking the same thing, instant buy, but without own loop import, it devalues. Maybe Bloom will commit to adding this feature in the future.
This is just what I needed at the right time too. I’m working on a fast technical melodic project and the Kontakt 7 metal drums eat my entire CPU. So I can use those more sparingly and make this Bloom plugin the star of the show for drums.
@@PluginBoutiqueOfficialNo seriously, I want to tell you how much the rent to own plugins help people like me who aren't super rich. Because of that I am able to have Serum, Phaseplant, etc. So I am pretty grateful.
I have Capt. Epic plugins. The Beat Capt plugin I found to be limited with not great quality sounds to be honest. I love, Melody, Chords and Deep, but Beat needs some work.
Maybe I missed it but are you able to play these breaks/kits as one shots? As in pick and choose elements you like and have it on a single key instead of having it be a phrase
Hej man, thanks for your video! It decided me to get it :D unfortunately, I am not able to make it synchronise with ableton... Doesn't record anything on the midi track and doesn't activate when I press play... Do you have any tips? Thanks again for your work

@@fanggirl441in turn, it's like the ujam rompler, a limited and closed sound bank, I hate that, I prefer to do the sound design myself, I consider that it is part of the sound identity. alternatives like loopmix and hy slicer 2 are in this more judicious case.
No. Just built in samples. I understand the reasoning behind it. Loops have to be quantized to a grid and trimmed to a bar or 2 bars but this would be one of the best sample choppers on the market if they added in the ability to add your own loops.
This looks pretty rad! So I got the plugin, threw it on a MIDI track in Live, pressed play, and... Nothing. I can trigger the slices with the keyboard, but the phrase player doesn't ever start cycling. The "Sync" slider button is enabled (although I've tried it both ways). Am I missing something? Do I need to make a "stair-step" MIDI clip in order to play the phrase?
I am sorry to hear about this. I highly suggest watching this bloom video, as it covers the phrase player in detail. - JC - th-cam.com/video/8Cvs7h9CG1E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oJDHI8z-zJuc93ZK
@@jonnyidleYeah of course I read the manual. Do you see somewhere in the manual that I should be looking, or are you just the guy who says "read the manual" a lot?
@@PluginBoutiqueOfficialI'm still not getting it. Does this plugin work like XO? Like, does it have a loop at all, or is it all about performing new loops by pressing keys on the keyboard?
So the answer is: Make a one- or two-bar loop that just has one of the upper black keys held for its entirety. Then you can press play, go into the pattern and swap samples, etc. I think in the video, they are just holding down the black key the whole time.
@PluginBoutiqueOfficial This is a massive missed opportunity, imho. I understand the need to have loops trimmed and quantized in order for it to work but the interface and the workflow are excellent in this. If this feature was added you'd have an absolutely killer app.
Hello, this is the first i am hearing of this. Sorry to hear it at that! Please, email support@pluginboutique.com with all your system info, your DAW and what you are experiencing. I am sure they can help. - JC
The sound banks are bang average. If it had the ability to import your own samples or even export what you’ve created to midi so you could use your own, we would be on to a winner.
That's pretty interesting, so its only audio/samples? You couldnt import to midi? Maybe excite audio could incorporate exporting midi in a future update
Yeah I miss that feature. They’ll probably add it in an update. It’s still a LOT of sounds that you can add to your productions without manually cutting samples.
+1 for adding your own loops. Not having this feature is a deal breaker for me

Aw man, this is allllllllmost perfect... if we could load our own loops this would be an insta-buy for me.

I legit just thought about the same thing
This. The price is great so I'll snag it anyways, but I really think it would be nice to use with a loop I've processed.
It's coming in a future update! They have made an official announcement.
I was about to buy it but I just realized I can’t import my own samples. I’ll wait for v2.
Sold! Brilliant sounds for those of us who want organic drum grooves that sound like a drummer banged it out!

Purge all samples in kontakt
@@godforreal7355 yo I'll give that a shot, thanks!
Woahh - needed this! 🔥
Sounds great!
Awesome plugin
Excellent video!
pure 🔥
Are you able to put the individual drum sounds on different mixer tracks? Like separate the kick and snare
Josh always delivers, another excellent product to add to the Plugin Boutique repertoire!
Thanks for saying that!! - JC

This is dope. How would you compare it to the captain plugins drum machine?
I have Capt. Epic plugins. The Beat Capt plugin I found to be limited with not great quality sounds to be honest. I love, Melody, Chords and Deep, but Beat needs some work.
@@Table-Top appreciate that input.
@@aye5kayyeh I’d agree, XO is more agile as a drum sequencer, capt beat doesn’t inspire me personally
how to load my own samples (loops) to the banks? I tried in Cubase 13 PRO - didn't find
UPD: you can't load your own loops =(
I couldn't find it as well.. and it's such a big miss
@@spacekid5609 if i knew - didn't buy this vst :(
That wouldn’t work with this instrument.
I’m looking for the exact same thing. I’d like to use my own loops.
Thanks for pointing this out. Without that feature, I can't see myself using this.
THE ONE thing holding this back is not being able to throw in your own loops!
Maybe I missed it but are you able to play these breaks/kits as one shots? As in pick and choose elements you like and have it on a single key instead of having it be a phrase
Oh yeah. 100% can do that 🎉
Sweet thank you! Always love to play the drums with my own feel
How do I transfer the finished loop from the plugin window to the project track panel?
wait... No dark mode?
Who uses white plugins? My eyes hurt so much... I can't use sketch Cassette, Melodyne, and now... this
I mean I know what you're saying but I'm laughing at the idea that your eyes explode every time you ever so slightly look at something white.

How can I record the Drum Breaks into my DAW? im using Logic, and whenever I add it in the piano roll nothing happens
I guess Loopmix remains my favorite for now. I'm hoping for something like this and with a GUI that makes it fun to make raw beats/drum breaks.
Is it capable of loading/slicing my own drum breaks, or only the ones that come with it?
Just what it comes with - it’s like an instrument where the content and fx are designed to work together.

Use it like serum I guess? Freeze/bounce from Edison or whatnot
Can you drop your *own* samples into this plugin's Sample Edit section ? Or can the plugin only use its own in-built samples ?
No. Just built in samples. I understand the reasoning behind it. Loops have to be quantized to a grid and trimmed to a bar or 2 bars but this would be one of the best sample choppers on the market if they added in the ability to add your own loops.

Nope! So strange to have a loop/sampler/sequencer with no sample import
@@pnutbuttajellee1394 thanks. That said the Bloom Vocal ether I find really useful and you can't load samples into that either.
Yeah. At the moment, it is an instrument, not a sampler. Everything in it is catered to the sample banks that it comes with. - JC

Y'all missing out on a great plugin man, you can really do a lot with it.
You can’t import your samples or I’m missing something and my mac fans went crazy with this plugin and I use a m1 pro cpu
I keep myself with Rex player!!!
Is it possible to import your own samples into this plugin?
I had the same question. Looking at the other comments, apparently not.
the 32-bit aax, vst2 and vst 3, all versions crashes all my systems, try fixing that

lol can't add your own samples. Same with all their products (I think). Was going to buy.
Pass. No import or export.
Yeah I miss that feature. They’ll probably add it in an update. It’s still a LOT of sounds that you can add to your productions without manually cutting samples.
Just record the channel? Unless you're wanting to exporting midi.
Remember when we used to make our own breaks!! 😂 at least this should have an import feature.
own loops feature is missing, without this feature useless bloom breaks
No sample import = Dance eJay 2024
I hate that you can’t import your own drum loops.
