Fanan Team has released Kitton 3, a free GM compatible drum machine for windows.
They say:
The evolution continues. Kitton 3, the 3th generation of our general MIDI compatible drum machine now offers the same 20 top crafted full featured drumkits with new set of samples and the possibility to edit the significant kit elements. We also added a new "LS" feature which refers to "layers simulation". This feature uses synthesis to simulate real sampled 127 sample layers with only one sample and by that, to keep the plugin's footprint very small - yet realistic. Another new feature is the strike section (per kit element) which allows softening the attack of the element when needed.
