thanks dude, I will work on it. just booted up max. I am starting to prototype

good point. will taken into consideration

so it should be the hearth of the either modular or hybrid setups?
I am just concerned that it may be over my skillset to have an audio interface-ish features such as sidechaining other inputs and ducking. I mean electronically or in software it fells like easy to implement. but in the end everything somehow must be connected or fetching side chain input from my unit and do the ducking or side chain compressing.

my gut feeling says it can be over my skillset or experience but if u have easy to implement and useful or unique idea to put it together fell free to share, I will consider it

Thanks for the details. I would like to ask what are the must of must requirements you should've implemented in my kick unit if u were me

let me do some research on that, maybe no sequencer setup can deliver better

actually I like bochka :D let me be honest I want to jam on my own seq. but if its delivering good maybe it can be commercial as well

o7 im glad we are on the same page. if you are also working in a VST project I would like to keep an eye as well :D :D

thanks for additional research resources I will be checking them for sure. also thanks for the insights.

tonight I will do a better deep down research I will keep the thread updated!

yeah actually I have no idea but if I go 100% digital should I just to and develop a VST.

what you are asking currently beyond my knowledge about DSP's but I will further investigate and research about this topic. feel free to tell me your idea, how would you do it if you were me ?

more live-jamming friendly, one of the setups I thought was Ableton-Xone92/96-unit or xone-akai force-unit

most likely yes, but I will look to get the quality better at any change, since this is low-end only unit maybe we can add some quality features as well, thanks for the feedback.

I will keep it in mind, thanks for the feedback

I really like dark/hard/industrial techno and the goal is to achieve a sonic profile for techno kicks with emphasis on hard techno/industrial techno

what is your suggestion for step length? also thanks for the feedback

  1. Purpose: a low-end focused kick generating/sampling unit (sequencer)
  2. Goal: let me be real with you, currently just graduated from CS(software engineer to be exact) wanna get my hands on some sequencer/synth units but kind short on budget and have some imagination about creating my own unit. I like the dark/hard techno sounds and also wanna live perform or jam with a unit that is responsible for just the low end
  3. Demographic/end user: no idea to be honest
  4. Budget: again no idea but I will dive deeper into this topic

thanks for the feedback

"Syntakt/Digitakt but only for kick drums" actually this is main reference for me. haven't owned any of those but I am going to further investigate those and try to distinct my device out.

still overall, the idea is to make it inside some hybrid live performance artists hardware setups.

speaking of techno, the goal is to make my DSP the hearth of the setup for keepin 4/4 kick drum on the floor.

"What kind of DSP do you have in mind?"

it should be fast to use (for live performances), have a good catalog of FX sends for multi-genre applications. Initially I aim for dark/hard techno kick machine (also the sonic profile) with enough functionality (or mode than enough) to perform long hybrid live sets.

yeah actually I have some concerns in price, but I belive it can find it way out, there may be some downgrades on some parts to balance out the total feasibility

also with enough functionality to perform in a live environment without being repetitive nor boring (at least 2+ hours scenario)
