ADS-7 MK2 is the second version of AVP Synth’s analog drum machine/Synthesizer with 7 individual instruments, a newly developed sequencer in a tighter size.

Guga, developer of AVP Synthesizers has today announced the second version of its ADS-7 analog drum machine or more precisely drum Synthesizer. The latter because the drum machine has 64 knobs where you can tweak the sounds, so much more options than on a regular drum machine like the TR-808 or Arturia. DrumBrute.

ADS-7 MK2 is inspired by the drum machines/Synthesizers of the 70s-80s and features 7 individual sound channels (bass drum, clap, open hat, closed hat with choking on/off and 3 separate generators. These generators can be used for creating a wide range of different sounds: bass, toms, noises…

Further, it includes a built-in 16-track sequencer and MIDI control. It includes also 65 controls, 4 switches, and 24 buttons. On top, it features a wide range of I/O on the back-side: individual audio outputs and trigger inputs for each of the seven sounds.

The new version offers a new advanced sequencer and a tighter size.
