IZOTOPE ACQUIRES IDRUM AND PHATMATIK PRO
Cambridge, MA – IZOTOPE, INC. is proud to announce the acquisition of the iDrum and pHATmatik PRO
virtual instruments from creator Art Gillespie. pHATmatik PRO provides unique loop manipulation features
for performance and editing, and iDrum combines the fun and simplicity of hardware drum machines with the
flexibility of software.
“Art has cultivated the ‘musician interface’, providing working musicians with efficient, creative tools while still allowing
beginners to produce music,” explains Mark Ethier, CEO of iZotope. “As the first third party plug-in designed
specifically for Apple’s GarageBand, iDrum has been a critical and market success. Similarly, pHATmatik PRO was one
of the first loop slicing tools to hit the market as an answer to musician’s struggles to find ways to personalize and re-
invent their loop libraries.”
"I've been working closely with iZotope, and they're one of the few developers I know of that's smart enough,
passionate enough, and committed enough to musicians to take on these amazing products,” comments Art Gillespie,
CEO of Glaresoft. “iDrum and pHATmatik PRO have found a good home, and I'm sure our customers are going to be
very happy with what iZotope has planned for them."
Effective immediately, iZotope will assume all sales and support responsibilities for iDrum and pHATmatik PRO.
