A Pittsburgh Modular Analog Drum Machine, Between Heritage and Modern Vision
Designed by the Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizers team, the Boom Chick draws inspiration from the playability of iconic analog drum machines while embracing a contemporary approach: creative analog circuits, formidable sonic precision, and an interface designed to "play" percussion. Its sequencer, in the spirit of the brand's performance tools, pushes rhythmic exploration far beyond classic patterns.
Who Is the Boom Chick For, and Which Styles Does It Excel In?
The Boom Chick is aimed at motivated beginners to advanced producers and musicians who want a lively drum machine, free of menus, with real sound design possibilities. It shines in techno, electro, industrial, synthwave, rhythmic ambient, and live sets, but is equally relevant in the studio for creating original percussion (toms, claps, rim shots, cymbals, textures). Thanks to its individual outputs and MIDI and clock integration, it naturally fits at the heart of a hybrid setup (DAW, hardware, Eurorack).

Questions frequently asked
Can the Cre8audio Boom Chick sync with a DAW and MIDI hardware?
The connectivity includes MIDI in and out via minijack, as well as a USB to Host port. The clock allows integration within a system combining software and hardware instruments.
How many percussion sounds are available?
Five voices are offered: bass drum, snare drum, Drum 1, Drum 2, and hi-hat. The two Drum channels enable creation of tones from oscillators, noise, and frequency modulation.
Does the sequencer allow complex rhythms?
Sequences can reach 64 steps, and each voice can have a different length to create polyrhythms. Probability, random, and Euclidean generation functions evolve the patterns. Swing, humanization, and quantization affect rhythmic placement.
What audio outputs does this analog drum machine offer?
Outputs include two audio jacks and a headphone output, in addition to USB and MIDI. Separate outputs facilitate external processing of percussion sounds.
Can the Boom Chick be installed in a Eurorack case?
With a width of 40 hp, a depth of 30 mm, and a consumption of 250 mA on +12 V, this model is designed for Eurorack installation.
