What is Snapback?
Cableguys and electronic music pioneer BT bring the art of drum layering into
one fast, focused effect.
Just put Snapback on any drum track and it detects each hit, layering new samples on top in perfect time. Now you can add
punch, style and flair that EQ, compression and distortion cannot.
Still missing that magic? Layer special snapback samples
before the transient – a
secret trick of pro producers for "living" grooves, available for the first time in an easy plugin.
Discover the pro drum secret
For the first time in a plugin, you get the
pros' secret drum trick for bringing magic to grooves and life to digital hits: special snapback samples that go
in front of each hit.
Get pre-shifted claps in a click. Add unique texture to kicks and snares. And
avoid boring, over-quantized grooves with exciting between-the-beats motion.
Start layering in seconds
Forget juggling samples across multiple tracks – with Snapback, you add drum layers in one click.
Stack a click on a dull kick for instant punch. Layer stereo sizzle onto thin snares. Enliven flat claps with natural tails. Beef up boring hits with
special analog sauce samples, vinyl air and foley FX.
Shape your sound
Filter, envelope, pitch and align your layers with easy controls. See how they combine on a high-precision waveform display. And zoom right in with Detail View – your audio microscope for phase-locked hits.
