Sonicware Deconstruct MINIMAL Drum Machine with Sampler & Bass Synthesiser

Groovebox combining a sampler-integrated drum machine and bass synthesizer, built for the hypnotic grooves of minimal techno and minimal house

From the makers of the superb Liven series, the Deconstruct Minimal is another hardware groovebox inspired by the 'drift' of legendary analogue hardware. The first offering in the new Deconstruct series focuses in on 'hypnotic, minimal' drum grooves, with analogue bass and sampling on top.

Supplier's Notes:
Built on the rhythmic and pitch drift of the legendary drum machines - designed to create hypnotic minimal grooves

Intuitive, deep groove editing with fully per-track accents, random velocity, swing, sub steps, and phrase rotation

Integrated 4-track sampler with a 4-bar loop track - beyond drums through textures and phrases

Modelling bass synth delivering acid bass lines and driving techno leads

Focused real-time effects for dynamic groove control and performance intensity

The legendary drum machines are known not only for their iconic sounds, but also for the distinctive groove born of subtle rhythmic and pitch drift.

Deconstruct MINIMAL is built on that very groove as its foundation, embodying the
hypnotic groove of Underground Minimal.

Lose yourself in the profound groove shaped by mesmerizing repetition and gradual
transformation.

Deep 10-Track Drum Machine

Deconstruct MINIMAL is driven by its 10-track drum machine, offering intuitive and flexible editing for both sound and groove.

Per-track accents/de-accents, random velocity, swing, sub-steps, and parameter locks that capture knob movements combine to create deep, intricately layered grooves that feel alive.

Sonic Expansion Sampler

Deconstruct MINIMAL?s drum machine features a dedicated loop sampler on track 10, with tracks 7-9 also functioning as three sampler tracks.

Load one-shot samples or capture patterns and phrases, then weave them directly into your rhythm.

Track 10 is a dedicated stereo loop track supporting up to 8 seconds ? ideal for 4-bar phrase loops or atmospheric textures that add new layers and depth to your tracks.

Elastic Bass Synth

Deconstruct MINIMAL introduces a newly developed analogue-modeling bass synth inspired by the distinctive character of a classic bass synthesiser.

With additional waveforms, a sub-bass and dedicated overdrive, plus real-time control over glide (slide) time and curve, decay curve, and gate time, it offers extensive shaping possibilities.

From foundational bass sounds that anchor the bottom of a track to synth leads and phrases, it generates the key sounds that drive the groove.

Live-Boosting Effects

Deconstruct MINIMAL packs a wide range of effects, including Reverb and Delay with per track send control.

The drum-track-dedicated Isolator at the top enables everything from bold low-end boosts and cuts to precise tonal shaping, giving you immediate control over the sound.

To its right is a master effect control designed for fast one-handed operation and high-impact live performance ? DJ-style Sweep Filter, Phaser, Distortion, Snip Loop, and Ducking Comp.

* AC adapter and batteries are not included. Please use the LIVEN 9V Power Supply Unit.
