This is a 3-track Drum machine I built using a Teensy 4.1.
There are three drum-engines: Base/Kick, Snare/Tom, Hihat/Cymbal.
Each of the drum-engines have 8 adjustable parameters.
It has three master effects: overdrive, reverb, delay as well as master tempo and swing.

It doesn't have a traditional Step-sequencer. Instead it randomizes 16-, 32- or 28-step drum patterns by holding the "beat" button. This way you always get something new and fun to play with to keep you creative.

It's runs on batteries and is rechargeable using usb-c.

Headphone jack, power switch, usb-c charging port.

Black instead of red knobs.
