When you take a trance track ~142 bpm and slow it all the way down to the max the player will allow (-10.0 on pioneer 100s), the kick isn't always clean. It doubles up occasionally. Any idea why this happens and is there anything to do to 'clean it up'?
I ask this because I heard about Penta being played in a chill room, slowed way down. But when I tried it myself I get the double kick.
Maybe it can be done offline first, in software...

Did you have Master Tempo on? If yes then that is why.
When Master Tempo is on and the speed is increased or decreased the CDJs basically have to add what they think is correct sound to counter-effect the pitch drop. That is where double kick etc come from. Sorry for extremely no-tech explanation but that is basically what happens!
Try pitch-shifting the song up several notes in a very good software on PC first, then save it and then you can slow it down. Master Tempo is a load of rubbish.

or just slow it down on the PC first, no need to make it overly complicated
