Sonic Charge Microtonic is a VST / AU plug-in for Windows and Mac featuring a unique drum and percussion synthesizer combined with a pattern based drum-machine engine.
You can use Microtonic as a sound module to play drum sounds from your MIDI keyboard or sequencer, or you can use the built-in pattern engine to play drum patterns in sync with your sequencer. The sound of Microtonic is 100% synthetic and rendered in real-time. No samples or pre-rendered waveforms are used.
Sonic Charge Microtonic was created by Magnus Lidström. Magnus is known for his work with Propellerhead Software and XLN Audio. In particular, he was the brain behind the highly acclaimed Malström synthesizer introduced in Reason 2.0.
Microtonic is thoroughly unlike anything you have heard or worked with so far.

Sonic Charge Micro Tonic is one of thee best drum synths you can get for the Price. it delivers a big sound with flexible programming. It is really great for EDM production and sound design work. I reviewed this product for Big Shot Mag when it was released many years ago, and I must say i still use this product. It has with stood the test of time for a reason. It rocks!
Sonic Charge - Microtonic Pros - Huge range of sonic possibilities. Powerful sound. Great drum presets. Versatile sequencer. MIDI keyboard mode Cons - No output effects. Verdict - Not a huge update, but then MicroTonic was already - and continues to be - one of the best beatbox...
