am i hearing all the craz percussion under the kicks that is giving techno its sound...liek some sorta triplet notes or somethign between each kick..si most techno written in 16th notes or
k--- k--- k--- k--- ( i think that is 16th notes ) i got some great kicks goigjn with delay n reverb n distorion but cant get it to not sound so one dementional ..all the techno/hardd techno i like sounds very groovy and like a--- b--- a--- b--- not jsut a--- a--- a--- a--- like mine...any suggestions...
try a few toms under the kick
i have same prob with some of mine tracks, i've added some toms and then it would sound like
cheap euro disco :D in good tracks i cant even hear those toms they just make that deep rough sound well i guess the key here is eq...
Use synthesized percussion sounds, rather than samples and start playing with them.
As you say EQ.Quote:

Also get creative with pannig and pitching down. :)
Maybe try playing with different broken drum patterns with different sounding kick drums at different freqs at different volumes under you main kick :)Quote:

:devilish:
haha
how about one delayd distorted kick (so its chuggin along ) and its being triggerd/gated by another more pounding non delayd kick...(and of course add other kicks ..some eq'd HIGH and some eq'd LOOOOOW )
so far that is been werkin best for me..
now if i can only find the best way to gate it...(in fruity)
Get some electronic toms, play em low, on every note, filter em down with a low pass, bung up the resonance and get em to rumble.
Maybe sidechain to the kick as well, and hey presto, standard techno rumble.
im on it....THANKS (btw- i seeen ur myspaces..all of yas...ha =)
