DESCRIPTION

Mean kick drum...
triggered band pass filter
use a limiter - this thing kicks ;)

UPDATE 2.10.1
Improved saturation
Improved trigger logic
Added control for HiPass filter
Added Notch filter
Bigger GUI by Brett Lavallee

UPDATE 2.2
Quick one this:
We got the saturation wrong so its fixed now... :)
Brett's done loads more presets - YAY!!!
Brett's put an LFO in for some the presets...

UPDATE 2.0
Tweaked Benjamin Poddig's filter - feedback inserted twice, once with saturation
New GUI by Brett Lavallee
Some extra work on saturation section by Benjamin Poddig, Brett Lavallee and myself
Modulation added by Brett Lavallee
Presets added by Brett Lavallee and myself
a good tidy up
and
FIXED: Will now accept gates and triggers... :)

UPDATE 1.3
Replaced the stock ladder filter with Brett Lavallee's Poddig jobbie
much better now
Various GUI improvements...
Added:
Saturation Knob - for saturating the output of the filter before the tone section - saturating inside the filter feedback loop kills the decay
Trig+ Knob - this adds gain to the input trigger which overdrives the filter quite nicely
Fixed:
stupid mistake in the trigger logic - the Phase Knob does much more phasey stuff now

UPDATE 1.2
Fixed triggering issues - i hope
added switchable MIDI pitch control

UPDATE 1.1
changed the band pass filter topology
sorted the trigger logic to give phasey retriggering - 808 style
generally working better...

Great kick drum! love it. However, can't seem to configure the controls in ableton except the bitch knob? Would love to be able to configure all controls in ableton to make this tweakable straight from my Push. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? This is possible on all other Blocks I have used so far. Thanks in advance for your help!

Ah, I had to hook a note-in util to the gate. NM. Sounds great! Thank you!

For some reason I'm not getting any sound out of this .ism file. Am I missing something? 2.2 worked just fine.

@david : Thanks, I will try it. If anyone has a tip on how to modulate the pitch of the kick evenly with keytracking and A/B mod, it will be appreciated.

@Martin yes i understand... as the tone is based on filter feedback/resonance it won't track evenly... you can use a+b mod for this...

@david : Kick sounds awesome! Great tweaks, however it's still not possible to add pitch input, it would be really nice to check out the various pitches without need to tweak the Pitch knob. Thanks!

Nice tweak on the filter. This kick is pretty awesome. In the forum I have provided you a link for a slightly optimized filtermacro.

K.. update 2.2 is essential if you want it to work properly Thanks Brett for you lovely GUI and ideas and presets and talking to Benjamin... hopefully that's it until i get to grips with the filter properly... :)

@neil rosson there's a thread on the forum. please contact me there with how you're using it. trying to get consistent trigger is proving a PIA

Sounds great. Although It seems to sound completely different without the trig-in?

@Martin... will be adding modulation once i got my head around the best ways to scale the controls to allow modulations plus sort triggering out etc.... @Brett... thanks... it is more a test for the filter system at the moment, haven't done any refinement yet... :)
