Description
This is a kick synthesizer Max-for-Live instrument. A 2-stage decay envelope modulates the pitch of kick in order to create a fast clicky attack, as well as a slower drop stage. A filtered noise envelope also adds an additional attack option. I am considering adding in a sample module for further flexibility with attack timbre, so please drop me a comment if this is something you would like implemented.
The oscillator is a 8-partial additive sine engine that enables harmonics easy harmonic shaping. There is also an overdrive and compressor, so all of the tools should more-or-less be in this plugin. Just drop it on a cell of Drum Rack :)
This device can be downloaded for free (pay-what-you-want) from my Ko-Fi page. If you like it, please consider supporting me! Enjoy the plugin!!
** Note on Stability and Bugs **
The partial mixer can be buggy when first loading. I tried to mitigate this, but if you experience a problem, just click on it and it should correct itself.
I've only tested on x86 64-bit Mac, but I'm not using any 3rd party externals for this, so I don't anticipate any problems on other system architectures.
