Hey all, I have a question wich is bothering me for some time now. In wildstylez his tracks and some noisecontrollers they use FX kicks that have a very specific sound wich I can't seem to reproduce. It's the FX kick , I know how to make a FX kick kick, that's not the problem, but I think it has some kind of envelope attack on it or something.
2.07,2.27,4.19,
0.28,0.44
Hope you can help me out.

Yeah I don't try to copy it, but I remember Wildstylez came with it first. I'm not asking for the exact answer, but Wildstylez doesn't use it only for FX kicks, also for other sounds. To me it sounds like he shortens the decay of the sample and then reverses it, but that doesn't come out well.

well i'll give you my guess, I think it's a distorted drum/FX sound which is definitely timestretched, and put into a granular type of synth where the sound is mangled and the envelope is changed, i would think he used some basic volume envelope to touch it off as well at the end

other example could be the track to the minute.. 5:14
Sounds much more complicated than it really is. And most FX sounds is just random, by trying different things. It's not like Bas sit's down and just knowing i want this "Donggrunggangdingdingdraaaaanggronggong sound" and then he just creates it. He is strecthing, cutting, distorting, layering etc until he get's something cool that fit's.
He might have an idea for something, but most FX sounds are so random and not just something you recreate.

Filter with Resonance > Different Distortion Types > Reverb. > Success ?
Than Put into Kontakt and u can edit the Envelope, just try around.
its more messing and trying around so there is no real way to recreate it.

Imagine building a guitar and then tuning it and then playing it. That's what electronic music is.

Imo, it is the same process as for making Toneshifterz Fx kick...
I guess the easiest way is to reverse your kick, stretch it, cut it,distort it, filter it (camelphat do it well, bandpass filtering, little distortion, add resonance and play with cutoff & enveloppe)
Then add reverb and you can filter it again to make it sounding like a background sound if you want.
I hope it can help

I experienced this not so long ago, when I was trying to recreate some sounds (which is good in some cases to learn about certain things etc.) BUT in the long term it's just NOT worth it. You should just do what Crankx also wrote and you'll get good FX sounds for sure.
