Instrument

UVI Prime 8+ | GUIS
Prime 8+ is designed to be the first and last word for these classic drum machine sounds. Using an old-school analog hardware approach we deliver the real hit-record sound, not just the machine, but the sound of a world-class recording studio. Starting with a full hardware inspection and restoration, we ran each sound of Prime 8+ through a Class-A signal chain and captured it using the best converters at the highest resolution available.
UVI Prime 8+ | Machine
After meticulous editing, the entire library was mastered by Chris Gehringer at Sterling Sound in New York City, a modern legend of urban music and someone with a true ear for this machine. The result is a distinct and immediate punch, giving the sounds a polish, presence, and clarity that strict hardware emulations miss - and for us, it captures exactly the energy that this machine is so famous for.

Adding a little spice to the mix we've outfitted each channel with useful effects, including reverb, delay, drive, and a combo LP/HP filter, helping you to quickly create rich and dynamic instrument mixes. As well, Prime 8+ can easily switch between a single stereo output or per-channel multi-out operation allowing you to further refine your mix.

A built-in sequencer comes preloaded with over 1100 patterns, from classics to modern genre. You can easily program your own through the UI then drag-and-drop the result as MIDI to your DAW, or sequence any way you like. Over 140 handcrafted presets give you instant gratification, providing ready-to-go setups or starting points for your own design.
