Re: New kickdrum synthesizer: Audija KickDrum VST/AU

From what I can tell the sample analyzer works pretty well. However, only if you have a 'standalone' hit in a WAV file. It's not really possible to extract a kick from a full track and I don't even talk about 'demixing', just extracting a single hit from, let's say, the beginning of a track, where only the kick plays. MP3s don't even show up in the browser.

I've tried to extract a single hit from a full track WAV file and couldn't manage to extract just a single hit. If it's even possible it doesn't seem to be very intuitive. It would also help to let the user change values directly on the number displays on the left side. Currently you have to find the correct handle in the window to change a value instead of just dragging the value up and down.
At some point the plugin crashed when I tried to move the start point. (log deactivated unfortunately)

It would really be helpful if we could load more file types and were able to shift the input file left/right in the import window so we can select the hit we want. I think both Kick3 and Kick Ninja show you window where you can select the hit with markers, but I don't think it has to be that fancy.
no, your're right it wasnt designed to extract regions from whole tracks, but rather to select a region in your daw and then to further work on the cutout audio in KickDrum. but it's a nice idea to give it a region selector, and something like that is needed anyway for another feature that is coming - so that's on the list now :tu:

I didn't follow too much the beta... And now I just watched the analyse function video in your YouTube.
I am still looking for my jaw on the floor...

You have been busy man. Awesome work.
thank you so much! yes, indeed :D

ok, bought! nothing to lose at this price :) and the analyzing function-video looked great. maybe i get used to the gui, though i still think an easy mode would be great. and more „general“ techno/house-presets ;)
nice, thanks! an easy mode is a really nice idea - it's a bit down the line, but definitely doable.

If you have techno/house samples you can now turn them into presets with the analyzer. Load them in a sample device to preview and if you find one that is almost there, analyze it and then customize to taste.
I know it's not exactly the same as presets, but I think I was one of the first that criticized the presets in Kickdrum and imo it's not a big priority anymore because of the analyzer.
..and also because there's a dedicated preset section coming to the webpage :wink:

Hi Jan, is there a "key tracking" feature planned ?
An option that would allow to control the pitch of selected nodes based on incoming MIDI.
The idea is to keep the kick in tune with the bass line at all times without sacrificing transients.
And thank you so much for everything you have already done for us.
no, there is not yet, but it has quite a high priority and will come right after some things that are even more urgent atm - like propper multiband capabilities, folding devices & a dedicated pitch device...
