Dark707
Drum machine · VST3, Windows x64, Linux x64 and ARM64
Sixteen pads in a four by four grid, each one a synthesised voice, and a thirty two step pattern for every pad.
There is not a recording anywhere in it. A kick is a sine falling through its own pitch envelope, a snare is noise through a filter, and every voice is built the same way, from parts you can reach.
What you get
After you pay, a mail brings your licence and a link to your downloads. Open the link, give it the licence file and the address the mail went to, and pick the download for your computer: Windows, Linux, or Linux on ARM for a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB. The link keeps working, so come back for the latest version whenever there is one.
The download
holds three things: the plugin, DarkRunner to play it without a DAW,
and something to install both. On Windows that is an installer that
sets it up for you alone and wants no administrator. On Linux it is
install.sh, the same idea and no root either. The .vst3
is in there loose as well, for dropping into a VST3 folder by hand.
Windows puts up a blue box reading Windows protected your PC the first time you run it. That is SmartScreen. Quietening it means buying a code signing certificate and renewing it every year, which I would rather not pass on. What the box tells you is that the publisher is unrecognised, which is all it means: nothing has been found wrong with the file. Click More info, then Run anyway.
