The UNO Drum can be powered via batteries or a USB source, and includes four AA batteries and a micro-USB to USB cable.

Wide Sonic Palette

The UNO Drum lets you freely swap analog and digital elements, so you never have to feel limited by predefined combinations. Between the analog engine designed by SoundMachines and samples drawn from IK's award-winning SampleTank sound & groove workstation, the diverse collection of sounds encourages fresh ideas and unique creation for beatmakers, producers, electronic musicians, and DJs.

Performance-Friendly Controls

12 touch-sensitive pads line the center of the UNO Drum, offering two velocity zones for more expressive live playing and easier programming. These can be used to play entire beats live with a pad-style feel, or to easily add your own live flare on top of pre-programmed rhythms.

With the help of UNO's sound editing controls, options are always available for the key parameters of each sound element. Tweak the Tuning of your kicks for sub-rattling hip-hop, adjust Snap for punchy EDM drums, push the Decay for thundering industrial sounds, and so much more. The UNO Drum's in-depth control encourages experimentation to take your drum tracks far beyond the usual.

Built-In Effects

Switch up your performance every time you play with five performance effects: Roll, Fill, Random, Swing and Humanize, and Stutter. Tone-enhancing analog drive and compression are also on hand; turn up the drive to make your grooves hit harder with an aggressive edge, and add compression to glue your rhythm together with increased punch.

Fully Programmable

Whether you prefer 808s or MPCs, the UNO Drum makes it easy to program the way you want. The step sequencer lines the bottom of the UNO Drum, showing 16 steps and four pages. Tap a step and hit a pad to add a hit to that selected step, or use the record button play within a pattern. The sequencer also allows you to automate up to eight parameters per step for radically different sounds on each beat.

Song mode allows you to chain up to 64 patterns together to create extended grooves. In this mode, each step is its own pattern, so you can trigger any of the stored sequences live, on the fly in any order you want.

Easy Integration

Use the UNO Drum at home, in the lab, in the DJ booth, and beyond. UNO offers USB and traditional MIDI via 2.5mm jacks (cables included) to integrate with both your Mac/Windows computer, iOS device, or traditional outboard MIDI gear.

The UNO Drum also offers 3.5mm audio in to daisy-chain with other gear such as the UNO Synth. It even allows you to apply compression to the audio input to help glue your mix of instruments together.
