Kick Drums Reiterated

[Khazul]

The way people prepare kicks if they aint happy with what they got is a good old sample editor/processor.

Somthing like audacity is a useful tool for this - just grab bits from different samples to get what you want - distortion, compression, eq, reverb and an expander/gate are useful tools to shape the sound well.

Also handy to do similar processing on snares if your into hard breaks or similar...


In the amount of time spent sifting thorugh huge sample you could probably make your own if you know what your after.

Also what sounds good on its own can be a real arse in a mix and visa versa...
