About this plugin
Beatmaker CHROMED positions itself as a purpose-built drum engine for hyperpop and glitchcore production, operating within UJAM's unified Beatmaker plugin architecture. Rather than attempting broad genre coverage, the instrument commits to a specific aesthetic: fractured, high-energy electronic percussion with aggressive processing baked into its sonic DNA.
The plugin ships with 10 drum kits and 160 samples tailored toward aggressive digital textures, distortion, and unconventional drum treatments. The 20 available styles generate 460 MIDI loops, providing starter patterns that capture the genre's characteristic breakbeats and chaotic rhythmic movements. This loop-centric approach acknowledges that hyperpop production often prioritizes compositional velocity over sound design from scratch.

CHROMED's technical foundation rests on 12 multi-FX mix modes that prioritize saturation, filtering, and frequency manipulation rather than subtle enhancement. The advanced mixing page provides per-track control over volume, pan, filter characteristics, and ambience, allowing producers to maintain individual drum element clarity within intentionally murky arrangements. Output routing options support parallel processing workflows common in experimental electronic music.
The plugin integrates seamlessly into UJAM's broader Beatmaker ecosystem, eliminating the friction of loading separate drum instruments. The custom keyboard layout system enables real-time performance and loop triggering, useful for arranging sessions dynamically rather than programming static patterns.
CHROMED serves producers already committed to hyperpop and glitchcore aesthetics rather than those seeking versatile drum tools. Its specificity is its strength: developers have optimized every parameter and sample toward chaos-adjacent production rather than attempting universal applicability.
