KR-55C boasts all the rhythms from both models, for a total of 240 factory patterns, intros, and fills. Additionally, it adds 200 original patterns and kits that cover a wider range of genres. KR-55C's user interface shifts based on whether the A or B model is selected and includes extra pages that let this beatbox \"step out\" even further. It features a familiar X0X-style 16-button layout for step-editing and real-time pattern programming, as well as a song mode for chaining up to 99 patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike sample-based instruments, Cherry Audio has emulated the Rhythm 55's tones through analog modeling. The Instrument Edit panel allows extensive parameter editing like tuning and EQ for each instrument, enabling a range of sonic possibilities far surpassing the original. The Mixer and Effects sections allow for separate processing of each sound, with features including panning, mute\/solo, overdrive, flanger\/chorus, delay, and reverb. It also includes a bus compressor and limiter for master amplitude control. KR-55C offers DAW-friendly features such as auto-sync, drag-and-drop MIDI export, individual outputs, and complete automation capabilities.\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKR-55C Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes all of the original preset rhythms from both the KR-55A and the KR-55B, resulting in a total of 240 factory patterns, intros, and fills\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e200 additional rhythm and sound presets, including new kits of instruments matched and tuned to specific genres, with patterns that demonstrate each of the sounds in sequence\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstrument panel for mild or extreme sound editing with Parametric EQ, Tone, Tune, and Decay settings for each instrument\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFamiliar X0X-style 16- or 24-step pattern programming\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlexible pattern and instrument copy-and-paste capabilities\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwing percentage setting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal-time step entering via Trigger button\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike original, all sounds are independently addressable in user pattern mode\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasy to use Song Mode with up to 99 patterns and 99 steps per song\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal MIDI sound triggering with velocity sensitivity and user-assignable note mapping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixer panel with independent level, pan, and solo\/mute for each instrument\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEffects Routing Matrix with easy-to-use toggle buttons to apply effects to individual instruments in any combination\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEffects panel with studio-quality effects for separate processing of each instrument sound, including overdrive, flanger\/chorus, delay, and reverb\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEffects panel also includes a colorful and fun global master compressor and a global bus limiter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrag-and-drop export function allows simple mouse-drag conversion of patterns to DAW MIDI tracks (plug-in version) or Standard MIDI Files on the desktop (standalone version)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndividual outs plug-in version for independent processing of each instrument in a DAW\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuper accurate DAW sync\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUser-adjustable oversampling control\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete MIDI control and DAW automation for all controls, with easy-to-use MIDI learn and mapping (Preset and Global)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCherry Audio’s popular Focus zoom-in feature, as well as standard UI zoom and resize via drag\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete documentation available directly online from the instrument or in downloadable PDF format\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003emacOS Requirements: macOS Requirements: macOS 10.13 or above. 64-bit required.
