9.2.5 Kick – Rasper
The Rasper kick is an acoustic bass drum emulation providing a unique and organic sound that
can be easily adapted into Drum’n’Bass or Dubstep productions. Its two crispness modes allow
for a wide range of bass drums.
The parameters described below are presented as they appear in the Control area (Arrange view).
The same parameters are available in the Plug-in panel within the Plug-in Strip (Mix view). See
↑13.4, The Plug-in Strip for more information on this.
