I agree. I used to make my own kicks in the past. And it sounded like . Lately I've been using samples and it's much easier to get a clean mix now. My old kicks were too boomy and made my basslines sound muddy. |

I've always liked Ueberschall Techno Trance Essentials for their less hardstyle approach, more Ferry Corsten clean type of sound.

I also had a look around and found this today, it's Big Fish Audio 'Rush'. It seems like a good deal and sound, anyone tried it?

I'm sure any of these or superfunks sample packs would do the trick.

wow i've got a lot to learn about all this stuff...gotta stay persistent :eyespop:
ok would someone plz let me hear a "good" kick? I won't use it or anything, I just want to hear the difference between what you think is a good solid kick and the crap that I've been playing with all day to get to sound half-decent
yes, i've read all the tutorials but its just putting into practice that I have trouble with...My ears aren't expereinced, hence bad EQ/compression
This is a kick and bass compressed together..no I'm not proud of it but I think its an improvement from the last one!

| Dont use 909 samples because it will take too much time to make anything useful from them. |
