The record

Product purpose: Playbeat 4 is an AI-powered drum designer for creating drum patterns, sounds, grooves and remixes.
Pattern generation: Its genre-based randomization generates patterns tailored to selected music styles with control over beat complexity.
Factory library: The product includes a built-in factory library of patterns, sounds and 1500 kits.
MIDI control: Playbeat can output MIDI to control other plugins or external hardware, with a desktop Logic Pro MIDI FX version and an iPad AUv3 MIDI FX option.
DAW integrations: Supported major DAWs include Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Studio One, Bitwig, Reaper and Reason.
Plugin formats: Desktop formats are VST3, AU, AAX and standalone; iPadOS formats are AUv3 and standalone.
System requirements: The product supports macOS 10.14 and newer, including native Apple Silicon M1/M2 compatibility, and Windows 10 and newer.
Trial limits: The trial has no time restriction and includes the factory library and algorithms, but disables MIDI output, importing your own sounds and preset saving.
