The +Drive of the Machinedrum SPS-1UW+ MKII divides the machine in 128 Snapshots. Each Snapshot can contain up to 128 patterns, 64 kits, 32 songs, 8 globals and a sample bank consisting of 48 ROM sample slots.

Either load a completely new Snapshot or a single sample bank. When loading a new Snapshot, all patterns, kits, songs, globals and samples are replaced by new content. Loading a new sample bank will just replace the samples, all other content of the current Snapshot stays intact. Load times for both options are just a few seconds.

The +Drive gives the enormous advantage of having thousands of patterns and sounds more or less instantly available. Change Snapshots during a live performance for a completely new session. Load a fresh sample bank and try it together with your currently active Snapshot patterns and kits. With a Machinedrum equipped with a +Drive, storage space is the last thing you need to worry about.

All previous Machinedrum and Monomachine models are possible to upgrade with a +Drive. When you buy a +Drive, you will receive detailed instructions how to send in the unit for the upgrade.
