    Anyone have some kick drum tips, especially for Logic? I seem to have the worst time shaping the sound of a kick drum with nice reverb, because it always sounds like the reverb is too noticeable, or too, how do I say, stuttery?

    I like the sound of the kick on stuff by The Sight Below quite a bit:

    Any tips for this?

    • Ye - no reverb on kicks if you want it tight - play with eq / compression to make it punch through the mix.fadein11
    • or v.little reverb anyway - obviously it is approproate in some instances.fadein11
    • v.little reverb on that examplefadein11
