[A6] Re: Bass Drum help

[Colin Chung]

The tr-909 uses a flattend triangle wave for it's main bass drum body

I like using the noise FM for drum sounds.
It's been a while so my memory is hazy though :)

The ultrafast setting will give you a click anyway....

depends on what kind of bass drum tone your after I guess
But I remeber making a bassdrum with a triangle wave for the main body and a
self-oscillating filter
for the attack. That was more of a dancey drum sound though
That's more like a 909 approach

Anyone? Guess I just need some help on the most effective way of doing this
on the A6. My result so far is wack. Can I do it all in one patch? Any
Patches already avilable?

I want to program a nice BD on my A6.
I don't want to use the traditional self oscillating LP Filter sweep since
that becomes too techno I think.
Wanna use some other attack like noise or pulse. And I guess it should be
soft and click like.
I have set the engine optimizer to ultrafast.
Would I start by using a pulse or sine (or saw or triangle) wave for the
body?

If you know any available patches with a BD like this please let me know.

Hope you can help.
