Description
 

BioDrummer lets anyone create complex, fantastic-sounding rhythms on an ordinary PC, even if they know nothing about music or percussion.

Most music software requires at least some musical knowledge, and you usually need to have an idea of what you want to create. But not BioDrummer! BioDrummer just adds random notes, and lets you decide whether or not you like each note. By keeping what you like and deleting what you don’t like, you quickly "grow" a unique rhythm that is custom-tailored to your personal musical tastes.

And the rhythms sound fantastic! BioDrummer utilizes a technique called "software synthesis," which means that your CPU does all the work producing what you hear. As a result, BioDrummer sounds as good as drum machines that cost hundreds (even thousands) of dollars, using just an ordinary sound card.

And anyone can use it! For the musical novice and the seasoned professional alike, BioDrummer offers a thoroughly unique musical experience.
