We create sample based percussion tools for electronic musicians. We currently have 2000+ samples availabe for download. Our samples are also available "packaged" in two product offerings, Magenta, a full featured drum machine for Ableton Live, and as a Reason Refill. At Blip Drums, you won't find samples of existing drum machines. We create new and unique samples from the ground up using a mixture of custom made modular synthesizers, software, and location recording.

Blip Drums is ecstatic to announce the release our latest collection of mind blowing electronic drum samples. One year in the making, our Platinum collection is a stunning array of modern electronic percussion tones and textures.

Our Platinum Collection is 1000 electronic drum samples painstakingly recorded in 24bit using a combination of custom made analog circuitry combined with the latest digital sound design tools.

The Platinum Collection includes:

270 Bass Drums
225 Snare Drums
75 Claps

Magenta is a powerful fusion of Blip Drums' world class electronic drum library and Ableton instruments and effects. Within Magenta is over 1000 original electronic drum samples contained within 16 drum pads. All samples are instantly available via uniqe "sample selector" knobs. This allows freedom to explore drum sounds during play back without the hassle of loading external samples. In addition, automation of the sample selector knobs allow musicians to explore a whole new world of rhythm programming. Furtheremore Each of the 16 drum pads has it's own set of 8 sound shaping performance knobs giving the musician instant access to over 128 performance knobs. This moves Magenta away from simply being a drum play back sampler to a powerfully effective drum synthesizer.

Igloo Magazine published an excellent review of Magenta. Check it out here.

Since I bought Magenta, I haven't touched my Machinedrum. It's that good. -Scott A

...The overall percussive sound texture spans the realms of fresh “cutting edge” digital to, thick and warm analog sound. -Igloo Magazine


"Magenta is now apart of my Ableton preset template" -E Hostetler


The biggest difference between you guys and the competition is that when you say you have over 1000 sounds, you really mean it. Each sound is distinct and interesting! -Reg T

Magenta is an amazingly flexible drum rack for ableton, to my mind the best. -Richard S


"Your sounds are really exotic. I mentioned that I expected straight drum hits, like "real" kicks and stuff. I was playing with them last night and
some of this stuff is amazing because it has a lot of detail and you can add it to existing sounds to make them sound fresh and original."
- Kersten Schäfer (beatluxe.com)


Whenever I'm looking for something that's creative and texturally unique, I reach for Blip Drums. Your creative sounds are a big reason why people say our music sounds unique.- Mark Suhonen Production (Dr Seahorse)


Your sounds are really great! I already found some nice pearls! - John K.
