Black Magic is a VSTi which can be used with any PC based VSTi capable Host such as Cubase, Sonar, Fruity Loops etc... The main ambition when developing BM was to create an instrument which could be used to generate interesting and diverse loops which could then easily be saved out to WAV, ready to import into any other application which uses loops. The second goal was to be able to be able to play the individual parts of the loop as individual elements assigned to a midi note, which allows playing rhythms in a similar manner to playing with breakbeats. Finally BM can also be used as a standard Drum Machine, so that the first 10 Notes on the keyboard can just trigger the actual
drum sounds.
