i do kicks with two sine oscs.
one for attack and one for boom.
two sine sweeps one from about 1 kiloherc to lets say 250 hz for attack it depends of the key(scale) you are in and one from i dont know also depends lets say 200 to 20 herc for boom - new voxengo span rox!
if there is clashing betwene oscilators use two synths indenpendently so you can hi- lo pass(with eq in insert points of the mixer in daw) garbage and stuff and mix boom and attack than together in group channel and flaten their volume with compressor...
one osc cant handel it, there is always something wrong...
play, use ears and avoid mud/box in 200-300 range...

I'm sure I'm not alone with disagreeing with this statement.

for my taste a kick like that should do the trick as a dark/psy one, sound soft in the mids/highs , may help to get a more tribal groove

why does that chart use c4 as middle c?
I was under the impression that c3 was middle c, as that is what ableton uses.
when I put a kick at a1 ableton I get 110 hz?
thanks!
Yes, I saw that Wikipedia uses C4 as the middle C as well. Not sure why the discrepancy. Maybe it's American vs. European or German vs. British. Or maybe one of the two just screwed up.
innocently enough yes no i just think the kick isnt dark until the song makes it dark. ive written some pretty "dark stuff" with a hommega kick i got off isra a long time ago. so really i think if you want your kick to be dark you decorate it with darkness. otherwise its just a bent sine. There are so many different kinds of kicks in darker music too that dark kick could mean alot of things. thanks for the compliment by the way
