Back in 2022, Xhun Audio, the developer of the LittleOne (Moog Little Phatty), introduced the SnapLab Collection, a new series of plugins focusing on simplicity and efficiency. The KickBeat drum synth plugin was the first plugin in this series.

Now comes the SnareClack, a percussive synth plugin made for snares. Yes, logically, after the kick comes the snare.

Xhun Audio SnareClack

SnareClack is a compact, easy-to-use snare drum Synthesizer plugin. It uses 16-bit integer precision digital synthesis techniques (widely used on late-90s hardware devices) and a modeled DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter) circuit with saturation control.

According to Xhun Audio, it follows the design of all SnapLab Collection plugins. It is intended to have a very particular focus and scope, a simple, easy-to-use interface, and will be available at a fair and affordable price.

Full details of the plugin controls will be available in the following days.

KickBeat

The kick counterpart to the new snare drum plugin is KickBeat. It’s a drum kick synth plugin with two independent (bass/snap) digital synthesis layers, a built-in digital reverberation DSP algorithm, and an analog-modeled transistor-based saturation circuit.

Features

  • Accurate physical modeling simulation achieved by the adoption of the Advanced Component Simulation (ACS) approach.
  • Full 64-bit processing accuracy for every single aspect of the simulation.
  • A complete, self-contained, hybrid digital-analogue electronic drum kick generator device.
  • Two independent (Bass / Snap) digital synthesis layers featuring late-90s, genuine 16-bit integer precision algorithms.
  • Analogue modeled transistor-based saturation circuit with load control.
  • Built-in digital reverberation DSP algorithm.
  • Including 40+ ready-to-use factory presets collection covering multi-genre styles.
  • MIDI automation.
  • Support for sample rates from 44.1 kHz up to 192 kHz.
  • Available in multi-size GUI resolutions.

First Impression

It looks like a nice drum synth extension of the easy-to-use SnapLap Collection. On the other hand, KickBeat kick drum synth plugin for 9€ is a good deal, especially if you’re looking for a kick drum synth.

Xhun Audio SnareClack is available now for an introductory price of 19,90€ instead of 39€. The plugin runs as a VST, VST3, AU, and AAX plugin on macOS (Intel) and Windows. A native Apple Silicon version is not yet available, but you can use it using Apple Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon macs.

KickBeat is available for 9€ instead of 39€ (75% OFF) at VST Buzz until June 6, 2023.
