Very basic drum box

this is a very very rudimentary (mostly uninteresting) drum machine with 4 voices driven by probability, born out of exploring some of the lower cpu modules listed within the spreadsheet here: CPU load number database
the reverb is the only module in the patch that lists over 10%cpu - the airwindows galatic one. it is the lowest cpu stereo reverb ive found so far in mm. if you find a lower cpu, better sounding reverb let me know! ive set the wet/decay default at 0% so you don’t get any loud noise bursts when loading the patch (an issue that seem to occur currently with airwindows verbs)

runs at around 40% (30% if you delete the reverb)
