The Beat Boxer Black Friday deal takes 50% off this Soundiron Kontakt library of human beatbox percussion, bringing it to $24.50 until Dec 6, 2026.
The Beat Boxer is a multi-sampled percussion and solo vocal performance library. It is built from the vocal drumming of East Bay beatboxer Jerry Girard, who performs as "JBox".
The maker describes it as a hybrid multisample and groove instrument. You get single hits to play by hand, plus performance loops to run under a track.
The sounds cover kick drums, snares, robots, turntables and more. In total there are 100+ articulations across 11 instrument types, with an average of 12 round robin variations on each.
JBox was recorded close and completely dry in Emeryville, CA, by engineer Andre Frazier. Dynamic and condenser microphones were used together, and every articulation exists in both mic versions.
The library also includes:
Each mic position has its own volume, panning and routing, so you can mix the condenser and dynamic signals on separate buses. The interface also covers attack softness and hardness, release time, sample start offset, velocity attenuation and humanization.
The MIDI Loop engine lets you load an existing groove and change quantization, swing and velocity attenuation on the fly. The main "Ensemble All" preset supports full remapping, saved user maps and ships with presets for popular MIDI drum programs.
Performance loops can be time-stretched and tempo-synced from inside the UI. The FX Rack's convolution reverb draws on dozens of custom recorded rooms, halls, cathedrals and effect impulses.
The Uberpeggiator is an arpeggiation system for building grooves quickly. It gives you control over a wide range of parameters and lets you save and load your own presets.
The Megamixer is a drumkit creator with 12 articulation slots. Each slot has its own volume, attack, offset, attenuation, pitch, tuning and key range. It also loads only the samples you need, which keeps memory use down, and you can save and load your own kits.
The Beat Boxer needs the full version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.1.0 or above. In the free Kontakt Player it runs only in demo mode.
The maker lists Mac OSX 10.7 or higher. A dual-core CPU, 3 GB of RAM and a SATA or SSD drive are recommended.
