What it is

GForce IconDrum is a drum machine plugin built around the sounds and character of a legendary 1980s electronic drum machine. It captures 100 authentic drum sounds from that era - kicks, snares, hi-hats, congas, cowbell, and more - with the digital warmth and grit that defined 80s electronic music. Beyond faithful reproduction, GForce added a full modern production toolkit: per-track controls, a 12-part mixing environment, and a deep master effects chain that lets you mangle the sounds as far from the source material as you want.

Who it''s for

Producers working in hip-hop, lo-fi, electronic, or any genre that draws on 80s drum machine aesthetics. The kit variations range from clean and classic to heavily processed, so it works equally well for producers who want period-accurate sounds and those who want retro textures in a modern context.
