Hi Daniel and Brendan,

Yes, sort of... I also want such things (and you know what music I'm into), but
not exactly this BD... but it gives an idea of the "kind" of things we also
want. You know those typical Yamaha synths? Well, they have such digital
bassdrums too (albeit samples) and that's what also needed imo.

Indeed... tip: try to layer several types of bassdrums and EQ and compress: you
get very nice results out of that which come close to this example!

Stomper can do such BD's very well. I'd recommend to look at the examples and
see what they did there. try to start from their presets and alter them...
exercise!!!! I personally love Stomper's sound, but I don't like to work with
the mouse for programming sounds... so the "Stomper model" in the Machinedrum
would be great. :)

I like it too, but I want the sounds to be "controlled" a bit more because this
one would be a nightmare to fit in any mix. :)

Bye,
Joeri
