47 drum kits and 40 beat patterns comprise the sampler with the ability to build and sequence your own through an eight-track, 32-step sequencer.

The drawcard of this sampler is the old school ‘90s hip-hop sounds you can conjure, with Beatskillz recording and processing using hardware vintage samplers, analog preamps and EQs, and their own Samplex plugin.

To sequence or put your spin on the factory kits, there’s also controls for all eight pads with Volume, Pitch, Pan, Release, Reverse, High and Low pass, and Sample Trim to truly get funky, along with built-in EQ, compression, and reverb FX for an old-school feel.

The controls make for a simplistic workflow to lay down a beat to start from, while moving it into your DAW is also made easy with its direct MIDI export, along with an eight-track multi output to process each track individually.

The plug-in is available in VST3, AU, and AAX 64-bit formats for Windows 10 and macOS 10.14 or later, taking up 300MB of storage.
