@Cranx: love yours, good, but short tail _O_
this is my last kick. I've been worked on it for 1 week, so now I am happy with it. Anyway, this needs much feedback!

and f**k the soundcloud for lower quality
oh and btw, in addition to this I tweaked it a bit to achieve similar distortion effect as in Moonraker. So that's the result:

@Akaim punch is not bad but bass is a little muddy, too much mids, maybe decrease 100hz on bass




testing my new punch but i guess my bass needs more distortion..

qobalt: Nice crunch to it. I would prefer a little bit harder punch. Something hitting a little bit lower.

SRK: Nice tok to it. I cant say that i love the bass. Im one of those who love the shorter kicks. The bass kind of goes Whoom whoom.

Akaim: I agree with Aliner. A wee bit muddy.

Aliner: Your kick pitches really nice. Nice clean tones to it. The punch sounds a little bit odd to me. I cant really explain it. I would like to have it a little bit cleaner. But in the end it does the job the kick should do really nicely.

My new kick, im getting tired of this. I wanted a super crunchy and a little bit different. And when i do im not sure i like them. A sublayer will be added to this one. I think on my hunt to get the crunch i forget the mids. Making them thin.

@Akaim needs work /:
@Aliner needs a nice thick punch
@Source sounds okay, your dist is a bit thin

needs more eqing and tweaking but it's my first good kick.

@SourceOfDistortion: your kick is pretty good, what plugin do you use to distort? nice crunches can be achieved by using Ohmicide (I use it and it works perfectly) ;)
@CrankMusik: again nice kick, but I would add some drive to it :)
@Aliner: nice one, time to work on mixdown ;)

Nice kick and melody. Got nothing bad to say

my punch is actually quite thick, it's just a very bad mixdown like qobalt pointed out :) didn't even save that mixdown
Spoiler
probably a better clip.. my punch with a ripped tail (since i can't make bases this crunchy yet :( )

I dont want to be rude my friend. But I have a sample from NC - Ctrl.Alt.Delete kick and it sounds 100% the same. I know you say the tail is ripped, but the punch is identic. I can also still hear the digital wave sound in the kick from the original track. Just try to make 100% your own kicks, with ripping and stealing you wont get far. :\


My leads and kick under the melody from BLUE HORIZON from NC and digital punk. It pitches pretty fkn good I think myself, also the melody is I think 12 semitones to high but w/e, still you'll get the point! _O_

btw It was for educational purposes only
