Hi Eli,
There are no rules of course.. I like the idea you suggest to  
manipulate the attack time, so as to only enhance the back end of the  
kick.
I think the point I was trying to make yesterday, was in relation to  
layering and maintaining phase relationship. I seen some people layer  
up some kicks only to have them disappear in the low end, because  
they added two opposing low frequency waveforms. By shifting one of  
the waveforms, by ms or ticks, you can get things back on track...  
that is, if you desperately need to use those exact waveforms.

Best Regards,
Matt
