drumkit from hell or any sample..

[wannabecomedeat]

hi,

it's been like a month or two i got drumkit from hell 2, but can't seem to make the kick drum sound right.

what i want is something that sound about like the kick in the song cleansed by silence, available at:

(sorry for the extreme genre )

if i could at least get the kick drum sound available in the demo of dfh, i'lb be happy, but from now all i get is crap.

demo here:

I am really not the first to use trigger, so probably someone in here has acheived that kind of sound. If you are part of it, it would be great to know how you achieved it!

and there is also the damn snare, i am not able to make it "big", but it still sounds weak in the demo, feels like i might not be the problem here.

anyway, what are your personnal tricks with trigger!?!?!?

I wonder what everyone's obession with triggers is?

One word...layering.

To get most rock/hard rock/modern rock/whatever rock drum sounds (especially kicks and snares, and to a lesser extent, toms), you MUST layer different <insert drum here> hits together. Then, blend to taste. There's also compression, etc etc etc.

And if you're going to do layering, you can do it the hard way (the route you're on) or you can get DFHS (does it do layering?) or BFD.

Personally, I have BFD and it has layering, dampening, blah blah.
