“Roaming the land of the living and tapping into realms beyond the real — here comes the Bard.”

We are happy to announce the new Kastle 2 Wave Bard — an experimental patchable sample
player that takes the legacy and fun of our popular Kastle Drum (2020) and brings it to the next
level with user-uploadable samples, stereo, effects, and better sync and patch capabilities.
Kastle 2 Wave Bard is the second firmware for the Kastle 2 platform which already hosts the FX
Wizard effects processor. The firmware is cross-compatible between both devices. That means
the Wave Bard can be loaded onto the FX Wizard and vice versa.
