// title: three kicks // author: snappizz // description: // some kick drums i wrote back in january. my favorite is #2 // code: ( SynthDef(\kick1, { var snd; snd = DC.ar(0); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(800, 400, 0.01)) * Env.perc(0.0005, 0.01).ar); snd = snd + (BPF.ar(Hasher.ar(Sweep.ar), XLine.ar(800, 100, 0.01), 0.6) * Env.perc(0.001, 0.02).delay(0.001).ar); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(172, 50, 0.01)) * Env.perc(0.0001, 0.3, 1, \lin).delay(0.005).ar(2)); snd = snd.tanh; Out.ar(\out.kr(0), Pan2.ar(snd, \pan.kr(0), \amp.kr(0.1))); }).add; ) Synth(\kick1, [amp: 0.4]); ( SynthDef(\kick2, { var snd; snd = DC.ar(0); snd = snd + (HPF.ar(Hasher.ar(Sweep.ar), 1320) * Env.perc(0.003, 0.03).ar * 0.5); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(750, 161, 0.02)) * Env.perc(0.0005, 0.02).ar); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(167, 52, 0.04)) * Env.perc(0.0005, 0.3).ar(2)); snd = snd.tanh; Out.ar(\out.kr(0), Pan2.ar(snd, \pan.kr(0), \amp.kr(0.1))); }).add; ) Synth(\kick2, [amp: 0.4]); ( SynthDef(\kick3, { var snd; snd = DC.ar(0); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(1500, 800, 0.01)) * Env.perc(0.0005, 0.01, curve: \lin).ar); snd = snd + (BPF.ar(Impulse.ar(0) * SampleRate.ir / 48000, 6100, 1.0) * 3.dbamp); snd = snd + (BPF.ar(Hasher.ar(Sweep.ar), 300, 0.9) * Env.perc(0.001, 0.02).ar); snd = snd + (SinOsc.ar(XLine.ar(472, 60, 0.045)) * Env.perc(0.0001, 0.3, curve: \lin).delay(0.005).ar(2)); snd = snd.tanh; Out.ar(\out.kr(0), Pan2.ar(snd, \pan.kr(0), \amp.kr(0.1))); }).add; ) Synth(\kick3, [amp: 0.4]); /* contributors so far: nathan ho i use Hasher.ar(Sweep.ar) as a quick way to generate deterministic white noise, so i can get exactly the same kick each time for a precise digital sampler effect. you are free to replace it with WhiteNoise.ar. the DC.ar(0) does nothing, it's just so i can reorder all the "snd = snd +" lines and/or comment out parts of the synth. some of the attacks are so fast that Env:kr doesn't correctly handle them. that's why i always use Env:ar, so i don't have to think about ar/kr when i'm messing with sharp envelope attacks. i'm sure many of them could be refactored to kr for CPU, but idc */
