How do I get my Kicks and snares so sharp!!

Are there any tutorials?
I've got some nice samples, but I can't work out how thats done,
I'm using reason atm, so if you could help me to make this sound with reason that would be nice.
I also understand fruity loops, so yeah (:
Is it just a nice sample with amid boost which has been compressed the shit outta and layered under the kicks? or wha.... I dunno, HELP!

Just because you are a character, does not mean you have character.

layer a kick under a snare......add reverb to both kicks and your snare......compress it and put a limiter on both
also use multiple snares to vary sound

Usually what I do is just compress my kicks, distort the snares/claps and put reverb on both of those things.

pretty much this.. i'd add the reverb after the compression thoughrinseballs21 wrote:layer a kick under a snare......add reverb to both kicks and your snare......compress it and put a limiter on both

more to the point tho. don't use reason unless you've got it rewired though another sequencer.
the mixer on reason makes everything sound weak and tinny.
