Psylus Audio have released Hard Kick, available at the intro price of €89.95, increasing to €150.00 after the promotion.
HardKick is the kick builder plugin that features everything you need for your harder kickdrums. Timestretching, pitching, layering and editing to perfection. Always play in key and in sync with your track BPM.
It features six different sound sources: kick, attack, crunch, rumble, bass, SFX.
All the sound layers are tagged with a certain style like hard style, raw style, techno, trance, experimental, and more.
Start the process by selecting one or more styles and rolling the dice. Find the perfect kickdrum to your track within seconds. Tweak it some more by going into the sound selection and change the individual sounds.
Go beyond and edit each layer with additional processing like ADSR volume control, EQ, distortion and reverb.
30 years of dance music kickdrums in a single plugin!
Features include:
- Layered sound engines: Combine multiple layers of different sounds (kick, bass, crunch, attack, rumble and sfx) to create dynamic kicks that stand out in any mix. Blend pre-made sample-based sounds with a sub osc generator to craft the perfect hybrid kick.
- Customizable kick designer: Shape your kick samples with a powerful sound design engine. Control the pitch, decay, and timestretching with precise real-time sliders and knobs.
- Key tracking, timestretch & more: Easily play the kick in your desired note thanks to the dedicated pitch & timestretch algoritm modelled to industry standard results.
- Distortion & saturation: Add weight and character to your kicks with an array of distortion algorithms. Whether you want a clean, hard hit or a gritty, raw edge, HardKick has you covered.
- Envelope modulation: Shape the envelope of each layer for complete control over how your kicks evolve over time. Use the envelope to create tighter or more sustained tones, adding even more variation.
- Built-in FX rack: Enhance your kicks with a built-in effects chain featuring EQ, reverb and distortion. Fine-tune each layer and add character to your sound without leaving the plugin.
- Presets & soundbank: Instantly access a library of professionally-designed presets, featuring hard kicks for various genres, from extreme distorted kickdrums to techy punch kicks and rolling kicks & bass combinations.
