AKAI TOM CAT Analog Drum Machine With Built-In Percussion Voices
Tom Cat is an exciting true analog drum machine with five built-in percussion voices, including Kick, Snare, and Clap sounds with chromatically tunable Disco Toms. Onboard controls - all continuously variable - enable users to customize the tuning, amplitude envelopes, and volume of each drum voice separately for precise real-time adjustment. Tom Cat is an analog multi-voice drum machine that easily integrate with both modern and vintage music equipment.
Outfitted with six MPC-style pads and a built-in 32-step sequencer, Tom Cat provides an ultra-responsive interface with a classic drum machine layout. Drum patterns can be fine-tuned using the Swing function, Pattern Select, and Tempo Control knob. A custom signal path, activated by its unique "Maul" circuitry, lets the user ‘dirty up' their drum beats for just the right effect.
