Create a Heaving Kick Drum Without Samples in FL Studio
“In this tutorial we are going to go over how to create a powerful punching kick drum sound in FL Studio. Traditionally this would require us to have multiple high quality kick drum recordings from which to work from. We would need to trim them so they occur at the same instance, EQ out phase cancellations, etc and possibly still not get the sound we want.
“Instead we are going to use Image-Line’s new VST, Drumaxx. Drumaxx is a percussion synthesizer that lets us mold and create our drums as we see fit without any samples. This will let us tweak the drums at any point in the process without having to back track through multiple saved files. In addition we will still be able to add effects and tweak them more by simply sending them off to a track in the mixer. Let’s get started!”
