Panoptes Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 How does one get that nice click which is layered over the kick. Is it a sample or does it just take some tweaking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharaOm Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Do you have any example ? If you talk about any regular psy kick, it's just the shape of the wave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veracohr Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 If you want a really clicky kick, use a large amount of pitch modulation with a fast decay. This means it starts out at a high frequency (where the click comes from) and quickly gets down to the bassy part of the kick, without the noticeable downward pitch bend of certain old goa kicks.

Panoptes Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 thanks for the help so far.... i've gotten really close to the sound i want. I need to tweak it a bit and decide which synth to do it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharaOm Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 You can try this really cool VST : http://www.ismism.de/getbi_e.htm (it's a shareware, but maybe you'll have to find a keygen because the official pay website is down !) You got this small tutorial made by Infected Mush I think too : (He's using soundforge, but you can understand what shape the kick has to get !)

Veracohr Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Try out µTonic, it's a pretty good drum synth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

needle ninja Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 What you do to get a click is take a sample and chop it so there is a gap between the line and the zero db. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imba Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I use Bassizm2 and Psydrum by CHi-A.D. Both are great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuisBSF Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I also use Bazzism, well worth the price. 2KHz (chesty part) and 5KHz (click) are good general areas to boost a tiny bit (broad Q) to make the transient come through the mix a bit better and to give some extra sharpness to the kickdrum.

needle ninja Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Many producers layer multiple sounds on separate tracks right over the bass drum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoLoUr DoTZ Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Have a look at waldorf attack manual, it explains quite well how to mimic a 909 kick, snare, etc..... From there you can create your own..... http://www.waldorf-music.info/en/archiv/rack-attack/downloads/documentation/772-raenglish/download.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackfiber Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 bazzism + use eq and a multiband compressor to get that click sounding louder. Really depends what kind of sound you want to achieve. Also layering, if you find a right sample with a click and cutoff all the lows from it and layer on top of your bass kick you should get nice effects too. For that you need to have a sample library on a disk to find matching one or carefully change pitch of your samples, and you have to make those two kicks not to interfere too much with each other.

Imba Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Bazzism is good, i use sometimes emulation of 808 and 909 which is nice too, thats for more round kicks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuisBSF Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Some people put a hi hat hit on every beat to coincide with the kickdrum. I personally don't like the sound of this when the same hat sound is used elsewhere as well (ruins the groove for me), neither do I like it when all the high and low mids of the hat are still present (ruins the body of the kick for me).

blackfiber Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Another idea to get a nice kick - you send the output of your kick synth to three tracks in your DAW and then EQ each so that one track only has low freq, the second only mids and the third only hi freqs. Then you can adjust the levels, EQ for each part separately, add a bit of distortion just to one of the tracks and other stuff. Then you just can sample it and use it.
