The Numbers

The BMX has 24 knobs, 8 faders and 70 buttons, all laid out in a highly intuitive format that puts the fun back into your drum pattern creation. Input and output connections include Phones; Stereo Audio outputs; MIDI In, Out and Thru over USB and 5 pin MIDI ports; and 8 Independent analog outputs for external processing or recording your rhythms as multitrack audio. With its 3 trigger outs, the BMX lets you control external synths and hardware sequencers to create songs without a digital audio workstation (DAW) in sight. The BMX can also send and receive clock information with highly accurate timing to sync it to the outside world.

USB Control

To bring the BMX into the modern age, USB connectivity has been added for sync and MIDI triggering. This enables the BMX to be controlled by your DAW if desired, allowing individual sounds to be triggered.

Parameter Chaining

BMX’s robust encoder lets you set separate chain preferences for each of your parameters, allowing them to function globally or to switch when a song or pattern changes. Parameters include tempo, swing, flam, probability, independent track mutes/solos, FX bus assignments, filter modes and sweeps for enhanced real-time control. Patterns can be changed on-the-fly for further creative control when using the BMX as the heart of your live setup.

Wave Designer and Dual-Mode Filter

The integrated Wave Designer has individual attack and sustain controls that can be applied to individual voices to bring another dimension to your patterns. Additionally, BMX’s highly flexible dual-mode filter button toggles between LPF and HPF, allowing you to experiment with the cutoff frequency and resonance controls to create out of this world drum patterns while those fluid sweeps can be recorded straight into the sequencer and further tweaked using the step editor.

Powerful and Feature-Rich Sequencer

The BMX features one of the most powerful step sequencers ever created. The 64-step sequencer can store up to 192 patterns and 8 songs with a continuously variable swing allowing you to mimic a real drummer and give the beats you create a more human feel.

A Classic, Reawakened

The BMX was crafted with one goal in mind: unlocking new creative possibilities by reimagining one of the most iconic drum machines ever made. Blending a fresh, modern approach with the unmistakable character of the original, the BMX delivers the same punchy, authentic sound that helped shape early Hip-Hop and powered countless groundbreaking records. Its influence reached far beyond the genre too—New Order famously used it to define the sound of their 1983 classic “Blue Monday.”

BMX

The BMX provides all the tools you need to become a beat boss, including: 8 DACs with variable sample rate, an authentic 8/12-bit sampling sound engine, 8 drum voices; a 64-step sequencer; 117 default drum sounds, Line input for live recording and storage of your own samples, wave designer and dual-mode filter – for a full-fledged drum machine that’ll shake the house! Whether you’re new to drum programming or a seasoned pro looking to upgrade your setup, the BMX has everything you need to step up to the big leagues.

Complete Control

Designed to elevate your performance, the BMX packs a full suite of fresh live-focused tools across all sequencer modes — including step repeat, note repeat, real-time triggering and live step overdubs. You can drop into record while staying in pattern mode to build song structures on the fly, then flip back to playback with a single tap. Fire up the autofill to inject instant energy and variation and keep the momentum going by cueing up the next song straight from memory without ever stopping the music. With the BMX, you can run complete sets from start to finish — no other gear required.
