The Evolution of a Drum Sampler

Three years ago we started the ambitious project of building the best sounding drum sampler we could possibly imagine. That quest became OneShot, an instrument focused on nuance, dynamics, and next-level realism, a Klevgrand approach that resonated with thousands of music makers around the world.

A whole new Motion engine

OneShot at its core is built around a highly sophisticated drum engine designed for single hits. With OneShot2, we’ve pushed things further and introduced a first-of-its-kind Motion engine, that allows the user to create phrases that breathe and evolve over time.

Thanks to this completely unique feature, anyone can craft timed cymbal swells, shaker figures, foley movements, and virtually any rhythmic sound that you can think of.

Motion controller app (iPhone <-> MacOS)

OneShot2 comes with a new optional iPhone-app that lets you control the Motion engine directly with your hand! Engage the External sync mode in OneShot2 when playing a motion sound and you’re now able dictate the sound directly with your iPhones accelerometer. (Currently works with iPhone connected to Mac only).

Massive addition of sounds

OneShot2 introduces a large collection of new presets and sounds, taking advantage of the new Motion Engine, but also greatly expanding the already extensive collection of multi-sampled percussive sounds. In total, OneShot2 now includes a whooping 310+ Presets, 780+ Slots and over 20 000 samples.

Among the new factory sounds of OneShot2 you’ll find a new Studio Kit - great for all kinds of modern music that craves some acoustic drums. Also a brand new Jazz Brush Kit, rich in nuance and character. You will also find a large collection of new percussion instruments, nature sounds and other rhythmic stuff, all making use of the new Motion engine.
