Kick Drums

[Eridu]

I cut off my kicks at like 70 or 80 hz with a LP filter..

you mean HP filter? might be confusing to someone new reading this.

60 hz is a bit too low, definitely cut off higher, like the 70 hz range

And use a bit of distortion and maybe some stereo widener or something for more power, just have a good sample to start with as well

maybe i'm showing my age here, but i'd never use a stereo widener on any bass sound be it kick, sub etc, because it wouldn't work for cutting to vinyl (i personally keep all my sounds 150hz and below mono because of this)

yeah I've actually never used a stereo widener on my kicks, I like em mono. I was just suggesting it haha

This forum won't benefit from people just making suggestions they don't know to be beneficial or not. Maybe wait until you actually know things before you start trying to help/teach other people

I'm glad somebody said this.
