I've been working on a little Max/MSP-patch for the design of kick drums that I've decided to share. I called it 'MaxBoom' (I was born with the gift to come up with shitty names). I know there are already quite a couple of virtual kick drum synths on the market, but for those who don't have one yet, this might be a useful patch (and this one's free after all). So for those of you who are using Ableton Live, feel free to try it out!
It's got similar features compared to competitive kick drum synths, but it still has it's own sound design and it's pretty compact. It consists of a 'synthesis'-section that can be combined with a 'sample layer'-section. You'll have lots of control over the synthesis to shape the body of your kick. It's also very easy to use, so you can get satisfying results real quick.
If you need more info, just click on the patch-name within the M4L patch and it will open a popup window with detailed info. If you've got any questions, critique or bugs to report, please let me know. ;)
Have fun with it!
