DrumTraqs is a software instrument for Microsoft Windows (VST2/VST3/CLAP/AAX) and Apple macOS (VST2/VST3/CLAP/AU/AAX) simulating the classic Sequential Circuits Drumtraks drum computer from 1983. It is written in native C++ code for high performance and low CPU consumption. Main features are:

  • Simulation of the original Z80 system used in the hardware
  • Original factory and some additional ROM samples
  • Old-school Pattern and Song building
  • Built-in stereo mixing options
  • SysEx and MIDI import/export
  • Resizable user interface (not "N" version!)
  • MIDI Learn – all parameters and buttons can be controlled by MIDI CC
  • Plug-in supports Windows and macOS

DrumTraqs is not intended to be the latest hot-stuff power drum plug-in with bells and whistles (although there are some bells), the most cunning AI-driven super- human composition assistance tool, nor the coolest mega spawn of those magical 80s sound machines. Instead it is a faithful recreation of the original hardware with all its limitations and only a few extensions. Don't be afraid of time travel - this is the way drum computers were handled more than 40 years ago!

Special credits go to:

  • Wolfgang Paulke – influencer, Beta tester and a really fine chap!
  • Kraftraum for Beta testing and support
  • Nicolas Allemand for his Z80 simulator
  • Vincent from dbwbp.com
  • Stanley Jungleib who wrote the original Drumtraks Operation Manual
