5.5 Kicker
Kicker is a kick and bassdrum synthesizer.
It works by starting with a triangle wave at a certain frequency and gradually changing it to another frequency.
Start and End knobs control the start and end frequency of the sound. Note that the knob is not active if the LED is on.
Start from note: When this LED is on, the start tone will be the note selected in the Piano Roll
End to nore: When this LED is on, the end note will be the note selected in the Piano Roll
Frequency slope: Change the steepness of the frequency envelope. Larger values let you slide more.
Click adds a click/punch to the beginning of the kick sound
Start and End Distortion: Simple distortion envelope
Gain: Additional gain added to the output (makes it louder)
Length: Length of the volume envelope
Envelope Slope: Change the steepness of the volume envelope
Noise: Replaces part or the whole signal with white noise
Kicker was originally meant for drum synthesis. It is best used in the Beat+Bassline-Editor.
To get sounds which sound like drums you should set "Start knob" to a low frequency and "End knob" even lower. "Length" should also be quite low.
