The Kick

Here comes the first release of ther new Ferpect Instruments Groove Butter series.

The Kick features 99 different kickdrums which are playable over three octaves.

Ferpect recorded a lot of different drum machines in the few last years and have selected some of the rare ones and run them thru saturation, compressing, cleaning processes and finally built a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying kickdrum experience for musicians and also the listeners.

There are some totally clean and original sounding famous kick drums and also some which we have hardly overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results to fill the toolbox for different music genres too.

You got 99 variations to start with. All presets are velocity sensitive in a very musical way and also tuned. Add some extra drama by using the pitchbend in combination with other effects you got here in a very handy and intuitive GUI design.

You have the possibility to make the sound more epic and stereo by using the reverb, delay and flanger section. Here you can go real crazy if you want to.

In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and hipass filters.

On the left side of the instrument you got a few knobs to build up the total shape and mood of the drum sound by using tune, amplitude and pitch envelopes, a section to manage the speed of the sample and also a very useful transient shaper to add some extra attack and punch to the drums.
