I wrote a plugin (using a plugin prototyping platform called JSFX) that detects kick drums pretty accurately. It basically replaces the kick drum with a super short click sound (we're talking like a sample or two in length). I use it to do sidechaining where I want the compressor release to be shorter than the kick drum (the same way some people use "ghost kicks"). This really makes the kick cut through the mix.
Do you think I could sell this? I was thinking of porting it to a VST plugin and selling it for maybe $5 but wanted to judge interest first. Many many thanks for any feedback!!
