How To Make a Kick Drum in FL Studio From Scratch

[kaumetalhead]

WoW!! Magic!!



[bobychampion]

great help man thanks!!!

[frontschinken]

great idea to use the pogo-effect for this!! it also gives good results, if you put some more effects on it. thanks very much

[Tems1r]

it sounds great ( ihate fruity kicks) thumbs up.

by the way i´ll using it for schranz and frenchcore =D

[Detektor]

good psytrance kick :) looks very simple to make. i work with reason 3.0. i wish i could do this as fast as you can with fl-studio!!!

...clean sound!

[iSewil]

how did you get up a fucking synth!?

[DuckBorrower1801]

super helpful, I did this but with Sytrus, thanks a lot :)

[aditboy]

Thats how iv been getting my kicks but iv found i had to apply a lot of effects to get it sounding anywhere near as powerful as an epic trance kick. And even then it wasnt quite there. Do you do anything else after whats shown here before putting it into a song?

[Zephear]

@aditboy yeah, sure, that's just a foundation of a kick. I think the key is layering some live kicks over this one. But to do it right you need to be in precise control of the phasing between layers (there are plugins that let you do that) Plus of course EQing and using exciters, limiters and a bit of distortion can come in handy.

[DreamyGhost1492]

I dunno. This is a decent kick, but I'm looking for a flat out disgustingly powerful Rave kick. Something that literally punches you in the face when it enters the time line. DOOF DOOF DOOF DOOF. Something with a little more reverb.

[david292978]

@DreamyGhost1492 thats what I WANT!!

[DreamyGhost1492]

@david292978 Exactly! FINALLY someone else who wants the same quality kick as me :D.

[david292978]

[djjessebase10]

Thanks alot 

[FSBxMulti]

Nice video Zep! ;)

[SparkySubie]

What exactly does pogo do? Is it a pitch envelope or is it a more advanced effect?

[Zephear]

@SparkySubie I'm sure it is an envelope. The curve is not linear though I think.

[KookisKookis]

Made from scratch! using the freshest ingredients!

[laimonsis]

i did everything same, but i got Hardstyle kick only :) hm... i tryed high and low notes on osc3,...hm interesting why i cant get techno kick's...

[spirit205]

nice man!

[W0bbie]

I do exactly what you are doing but I can't generate the sine wave...

[Zephear]

@W0bbie why?

[W0bbie]

@Zephear it just doesn't make the sine wave noise.

[ElectrexOnline]

i'm confused...how do you open a sampler channel and what do you export the file as?

[Zephear]

@ElectrexOnline

To open a sampler channel just right click on any instrument and select Insert -> Sampler.

You export the file as a rendered WAV.

[ElectrexOnline]

@Zephear cool thanks for your help! :D

[ElectrexOnline]

@Zephear hi my fl studio instruments are making a crackling noise...what can I do to stop it? thanks

[Zephear]

@ElectrexOnline

I'm not sure what you mean, but maybe you should try increasing buffer length in FL audio settings.

[ElectrexOnline]

@Zephear hi...another problem im having is my master volume keeps changing on its own during a song...can you tell me how to stop this?

[peragutt]

@ElectrexOnline you can get a better prosessor, cus it's the prosessor's fault. it will dissapear when u make ur song into mp3;)

[ElectrexOnline]

@peragutt thanks...do u have any tips on how to keep cpu overload down?...thats another problem im havin lately!

[dbeatk]

[ZhallaMakhe]

XD!! Ruski! Ya chital vashi menyu lol!

Awesome tutorial! Thanks very much!

[Zephear]

You're welcome!

[mcturk17]

whats that thing under the 3osc is that a kick drum and u add the effetcs wit the Osc or u make it straight from the osc? and you dont give enough info about where u go for the effects and how much to turn it up or down

[Zephear]

It's explained in the annotations. What I do is create a sine note with the 3osc and reload it in the sampler. Than I tweak the pogo knob, tune pitch and volume envelopes. That's it.

[ThisScreen4Rent]

dude, thank you so fucking much. you earn 5 internets.

[Javed84]

[thisboyishere]

[adamj108]

[ferari912]

guys just get VEC drum packs..

[Zephear]

I have them, they are nice indeed. But I would like to learn doing kicks my self. I know this one is far from perfect, but at least I did it myself . I hope I'll make a better kick one day, stay tuned : )

[DigitalJMusic]

its nice when u know how to create kicks, but last few years the ppl are lazy and getting the vengeance pack because there are some good kicks inside but its just how do u use it. but i have to say its not bad. atleast u showed that you can make something:) the only thing i get out of making a kick is a Hardstyle Kick lol

[impoliterobot]

no disrespect but that kick sounds way to much like a fuity kick,not a trance kick

[MCDEVVOMAN]

@impoliterobot haha i was going to say that :)

[natex0]

@impoliterobot esactly
