My new kick tryout. Devastor is a beast for multiband distortion, it does the job for every 4 layers of the kick. _O_
AWESOME KICK! One of the best kicks I've ever heard, seriously! Great job _O_

Sound kinda good, it sounds only a lil bit "out of control" / wrong when it pitches up, hard to explain it.

My Reverze Bass
http://www15.zippyshare.com/v/77627644/file.html

Made: Punch Junglist(Cutted bass)
The Tail: Well it seems weird but Microtonic Synplant.
Tried and it worked!
Enjoy
Sounds okey, but it misses loads of low frequencies, would try to add a subbass or equalize it a lil bit different.

Here a kick im working since a long time, the melody is made by my girfriend, sounds kinda mysterious :P

Well I have very unaccurate speakers and from them the bass sounds good when it pitches up. I've already tried to fix it abit but it can be even worser now... Damn I need some studio monitors. :rofl:

Your kick sounds very professional, the tail is very clear and I like the melody! _O_

hahah, i love the random intro sounds, kinda gives a shiver down my spine :p
like the kick too, but my headphones are giving resonance to your kick, makes it sound overdistorted!

here's how my updated kick sounds with a little eqing, and a little bit of extra distortion :D

Really like it, the bass sounds clean, only the punch could be a lil bit punchier ;)


Edited my previous kick ( more punch and some punch->bass sidechain ), dunno if you will spot the difference lol :P

maybe it's just me, but i feel a lack of sub-bass in there!
the kick sounds good, but it doesn't have that missing power :p

good punch though :)

Are you using monitors ? I`ve checked it on my Samson A8 for reference and also on a 5.1 Canton system with a fat sub, it really has enogh low frequencies ;)

hahah, that could be why. but then again, my sound system consists of a car 1000watt car amplifier powered by two bridged pc power supplies :p in my room with 4 car subwoofers and the crossover frequency on an low-pass filter to about 120hz, it doesn't give enough power.

hmm, i'll test it out again later :) i didn't exactly put it that loud either.

i need some monitors!
