DO YOU HAVE TO TYPE IN CAPITALS ALL THE FUCKING TIME? ITS REALLY DISTRESSING TO READ.

TRY USING SIDECHAINING TO DO EQ DIPPING OR AMPLITUDE EXPANSION ON YOUR BASSLINE BY USING YOUR GABBER KICK DRUM AS THE TRIGGER OK

HOW YOU DO THIS DEPENDS ON THE SOFTWARE YOU USE; IT'S EASY IN CUBASE AND ABLETON LIVE BUT OTHER APPS MAY REQUIRE EXTRA WORK. I USE THE 'SIDEKICK' PLUGIN WITH RENOISE

BYE LOL?

The tight thump of a kick drum usually resides somewhere in the 150hz range. The low rumble bass stuff sits around 80hz. The higher bass guitar type stuff sits around 200hz. Snares sit around 300hz and 800hz is a general muddiness zone.

You could try rolling the low end off the amen to provide more room for your gabber kicks low rumble. Also, find the sweet spot for the buzzing upper end of your gabber kick and notch some of that frequency out of the amen if it's overpowering the gabber kick.

Or just turn everything up to max volume and let the DSP handle it.

lol


if youre usign sampled bass and kicks just play one without the other, for example, if youve got a gab kick, take away the bass thats sampled over it and vice versa

if youre making your own kicks, i would suggest doing the same thing, you can only put so much of a similar sound together without it sounding muddy, try to work on the dynamic of your songs so the two things dont have to be running over eachother
