Umpf Retro Beats

Reason Studios

Umpf Retro Beats is an eight-channel drum sample player designed for creating production-ready drum sounds with a heavy 80's aesthetic, tailored for genres like Vaporwave, Synthwave, Italo, Classic House, Dub, and Vintage Pop. It combines three insert effects per channel (Flanger, Lo-Fi distortion, Transient Shaper) with per-channel EQ, three shared send effects (Echo, Gate Reverb, Reverb), and a Tape Master insert effect for cohesive analog character.
