Loop and slice selection, playback and repitching is controlled by clearly colour-coded keyswitches, and various parameters can be edited on a per-slice basis, including sound selection and timestretch: serious experimental potential. Coming from Zero-G, it’s no surprise that the loops are excellent, and despite its semi-intuitive interface, ineffective groove quantise maps, and waveforms that don’t update to represent slice changes, Beat Master is a powerful tool at a very fair price. timespace.com
