Description : Geist is a new generation drum machine from FXpansion for sampling, designed to create advanced beats and grooves, freeing you from the restriction of pre-packaged loops and super complex DAWs.
Geist melts creative instrument samples with fast step sequencing and arrangement. Browse the sounds at lightning speed, and assign loops to the pads with a single click; sample, resample, and beat creation in a collaborative environment. Geist does difficult tasks with multiple applications a thing of the past.
FXpansion Geist works as a plugin and as a standalone program, great for creating bits. Exporting created audio clips or loading back to the resample plugin, reverse part, remix, rebuilds and transforms your beats in a new way. Geist is a complete, integrated rhythm production station for the studio!
