Guest Jaeroon Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 Who knows what programs are good for creating your own fat kick drum sounds and/or bass lines. Help is much appreciated. Quote
Guest Mike D Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 Visit the Infected Mushroom site and visit the home studio section, erez shows how they make their kick drums! Quote
Guest Jaeroon Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 I`ve tried using that method but can only seem to get those typical IM sounds. It might just be me not being able to use the program well enough but I am actually trying to make more Midi Miliz and Delta type kicks. Anyone out there got any ideas? Quote
Guest Ez Hi Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 Just get a good kick-sample and edit it on soundforge? You know..eq here compression there.. Quote
Guest hogus Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 The only software I've really managed to get kick-ass bass out of is Reaktor. It took me a while though, since I had to learn what went into making really powerful bass. For kicks I've found nothing better than manipulating kick samples... depends what kind of kick you want to go for... but starting from a real kick sound you just eliminate the frequencies that and aren't appropriate, boost the frequencies you want, stretch it to the correct pitch. Sometimes I'll layer a synthesized, booming kick over the original... it really depends very much on what goes with the bass sound I've created. Quote
Guest aonia Posted January 21, 2002 Posted January 21, 2002 go with BUZZ my friend. I mentioned buzz soooo many times on this forum, people will start thinking I work for them. It's free tho, ;-) In Buzz use Infector -> Filter -> Reverb(sonicverb) -> Panzer Delay -> Master this is my best recipe. I can send you samples of phat bass made in Buzz, short wavs... Quote
Guest jakemyth Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 drop the pitch a lot to get those delta kicks and of course eq and compress, add sub bass under kicks and u should b closer to the sound u want Quote
Guest etherdesign Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Waldorf Attack or Sonic Syndicate Junglist.. but VSTi synths.. can be very bassy for software.. for hardware, anything with fast filter and amplitude envelopes with self-resonating filters.. Quote
Guest Jaeroon Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP!! I`LL BE GETTING RIGHT TO WORK. ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ARE STILL GREATLY APPRECIATED! Quote
Guest Mike Indidginus Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Isn't he talking about bass lines rather than kick drums? Or am I confused...? Quote
Guest phin Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 the IM kick drum thing in sound forge is a good basic way you can take any kick drum sample and screw with its pitch enveloping and start point in Battery sampler or Reason drum machine. Sonic Syndicate's Junglist 3.0 so nice reason's subtractor synth has nice bass Tritium is a free bass synth that sounds good your fatness can be found in a good compressor as well: set compressor to threshold -6 --- ratio inf:1---attack O release 50 and crank the kick drum into it - the louder you punch the kick into it, the fatter it will become Quote
