Beat Kangz Electronics Beat Thang Virtual: Beat Thang's Software Incarnation Offers Impressive Functionality
Last Winter NAMM 2009, Beat Kangz threatened to give Akai's MPC serious competition with Beat Thang, a mobile music workstation. Since then, folks have been wondering when or if it would ever reach the real world market place (Beat Kangz have since announced a release date for the Beat Thang of October 2009). Perhaps in an attempt to appease the salivating masses, Beat Kangz Beat Thang Virtual -- a software take on the Beat Thang -- has been released at Summer NAMM 2009.
Similar to its hardware counterpart, Beat Thang Virtual has sampling and resampling functions that have easy key grouping, pad layering, and multi-editing capabilities in a kit or patch. Add to that pre-loaded sounds, waveform editing capabilities, as well as production-ready beats, patterns, and loops, and you've got yourself instantaneous production power in a portable package.
FEATURES:
- One octave pad layout with 8 banks so you can bang out beats or play the keys.
- 16 tracks so you can create patterns that can be performed and remixed on the fly.
- 16 layers of velocity sensitivity for emotive performance.
- High Quality Sampler & waveform editing. Onboard sampler & resampler.
- Edit sample start and end times. Process samples using features like normalize, reverse and resample.
- Easy to use Realtime Sequencer. Create patterns in real time using quantize, swing, individual bar lengths, tap tempo then string them together in SONG mode.
- Mixer with built in FX Change track, pad and pan levels.
- Add 24bit reverb, delay, flange, phaser, pitch shift, old record and many more.
- Onboard mastering.
- Export your songs as .wav files or save them to your Beat Kangz Playa Thang equipped iPhone or iPod Touch.
Beat Kangz Beat Thang Virtual has a launch price tag of 149 USD. Ordering your copy entitles you to a 149 USD discount for a purchase of the hardware Beat Thang. In a similar fashion purchasing the hardware Beat Thang Production Workstation entitles you to a free copy of Beat Thang Virtual. With these crazy promos, the summer heat is really still the main thang.
Sounds Interesting
Beat Kangz makes some pretty tight stuff.
I love it
the software is great, I have it already, and I like it...but I will say, it just makes me want the hardware even more!
The sounds are flexible, not just useful for hip hop, but I'm really interested in the transfer between software and hardware, as well as the portability of the unit.
Pimp
DUDE The BEAT THANG VIRTUAL IS THE BEST BEAT MAKING SOFTWARE I HAVE EVER USED!!!! I have everything, BPM, Machine, Reason, Live, and FL studio and yes i like those too and Reason and live can do more BUT......THA SOUNDS AND WORK FLOW on the Beat Thang is crazy!! I just turn it on and make a beat.... I make 5 beats in as much time as it takes to make one on the other programs..... Its refreshing to just be able to create without a hassle or long setup.....
No competition on the Sounds!!! Even my motif drums dont sound this good!!
I'm a fan
I'm a huge fan of what they are doing, period. Call me a fanboy or whatever, but I think it's pretty dope that they created a new company and are putting out their own products.
Not only will it give us a great indy company, but it will also put pressure on the larger companies to come out with similar products.
It's a win all the way around for us consumers.
Great
Just got mine! Love it! It sounds great, easy to use. No step seq though but i hear thats coming soon. Great buy! For a 150 bucks it kills everything in that price range under 400$!!! When people REALLY find out about this lil thing or THANG i should say, they are gonna be shocked. The industry should be afraid lol!
