1.5 Million rhythm cells from real drummers playing

Boomcha is built on a massive library of over 1.5 million rhythm cells of real drumming, recorded by professional drummers across various styles and genres. Each groove is meticulously midi-captured to preserve the human feel, dynamics, and subtle variations that make live drumming so compelling.

When you draw a pattern on Boomcha’s grid, it analyzes your input and finds the closest matching grooves from this extensive library. The result is a perfectly humanized drum performance that responds to your creative input, giving you the feel of a real drummer playing alongside you in your DAW.
