Wave Alchemy has announced an update to their virtual drum instrument, inspired by classic analog and digital drum machines. Revolution 1.1 now offers seamless integration with Ableton Live and Push 2 via new Revolution Module Instrument.

Revolution Module features the ability to select any drum voice or sound from Revolution Drums or Revolution Perc and play it individually. This is ideally suited for workflows that rely on playing individual drum sounds from a drum rack such as Ableton Live.
