Step Modern Drum Machine

Step is the first fully programmable drum machine in pedal format. It's an instrument, a co-writer, an accompaniment at a live performance, or a bandmate in an empty studio. Designed with the flexibility to instantly start a unique song but with deep customization options to quickly create fresh beats. Step is for everyone - everyone that isn't afraid to experiment, take chances, try something new, and create original music.

4 Customizable Drum Tracks

Step is a 4 track drum machine with a complete interface. Easily control all parameters for each of the 16 steps on the face of the pedal, no computer editor needed.

Mix & Match

How about an electronic snare with a jazzy kick? With Step, with a twist of a knob, you can create your sound pack by combining sounds from different Kits.

Instant Drum Beat Generator

Tap in the tempo, turn the Beat and Kit knobs to find your groove and play! There are 300 rhythms and 500 kits - it gives tons of combinations.

Modern Sound

With over 2000 samples, from the sounds of classic analogue machines to acoustic drums, anyone can find the sound they want. And, if you're going to create your kits, you can easily do it, too.

Per-Step Control
Customize over 15 parameters for each track's drum sound on a per-step basis. Switch up hi-hat velocity, add reverb to a final crash or throw in a 10% chance for a drum roll.

A Thousand Songs

Create and play complete 16-part songs, easily put together by quick-copying patterns, selecting new beats or making your own. Then make a playlist and go live!

Stomp-In FX

Use the FX stomp-switch to punch in customized effects from delays, reverbs, loopers, rearrangers and more. Every pattern in your song can have a different stomp-in effect.

Expansive Connectivity

A Complete Instrument

Step is a fully customizable drum machine, with features designed to make original drum tracks you want to play along with. All Step's parameters can be controlled directly on the pedal with a straightforward, intuitive user interface. Create complex and evolving patterns using probability, a dynamic drummer by switching up the velocity on eat hit, a sloppy drummer with the humanize, chance and micro-move features, or a perfect robotic machine.

Performance Ready

As a live companion Step can't be beat. With the ability to stomp-in effects and change songs or patterns via the dedicated stomp-switches, Step is a one stomp solution for all your performance needs.

Smash the FX stomp-switch and create interesting transitions or emphasize a solo. Freely assign over 50 effects in 8 different categories to the FX stompswitch, from repeaters and rearrangers to delays and reverbs.
