Hi. Plz tell me is this a good kick for my track...

Hello mates...

I've been workin on fruity loops for about an year now.. bust still i have some problems... I was making some tracks but everyone used to say that my kick and basslines were quite muddy.... then i found out about the vst plugins like 2 days ago.... then i made new bassline and a new kick but i need to know what do you ppl say... coz i want to make a good track soon... Im still intensly playin with vsts... Just tell me if this kick and the 3 layers of bassline is good(This is a small sample).... will be a really good help for me..... thanks in advance... here is the link

It's sounds all right, mate. I'd probably substitute the kick for one with more punch though.

I thinks you need a compression with lower tresh, higher ratio to get more punchy kick.

sounds nice

theres a cool thread over here http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...threadid=276466 not to sure on the threshold levels dave mentioned tho ... suppose it depends what your source kick sounds like

wow m8, where did all the low frequencies go on your kick

Posted by avengie on Mar-24-2006 22:12:

Lol is it bad? Should i need the low frequenzies there as well?

Posted by mysticalninja on Mar-24-2006 22:31:

oh god!! way to much compression!! find a balance between those two.

Posted by /I\ on Mar-24-2006 22:37:

It isnt bad, just expected to hear more low end. Know how you feel tho .. getting the balance right is a biotch

Posted by avengie on Mar-25-2006 00:07:

can someone post a little sample of a perfect kick? just the kick... so i can make my own coz its getting in my nerves now....

coz i changed my frequenzies again.... added low stuff... if this is not right, its too hard lol here is the modification i did this time..

Heres an idea. why not bounce your new kick as single shot and layer it with your original one you posted ... could be interesting

this sounds like im listening to a track on laptop or a cellphone speaker...but im not so yeah where's the low end it sounds like im hitting the edge of a floor tom!
