Mandrake - Kick Drum Synthesizer by Malstrom

video upload by MATTHS

"A kick drum lays down the foundation of your track, the root of your beat. You need the low end to create a pumping motion and the high end to cut through the mix. All this while maintaining spectral room for other sounds. So it can be quite an undertaking to get right.

Which is why we developed Mandrake. A kick drum synthesizer that targets kick drum sounds for Dance, House and Techno music. Inspired by physical models, DAW drum synthesis and sound mixing techniques. It divides the sound into a 'Hit' and 'Body', with sound shaping possibilities for both sections.

Mandrake is not another 808 or 909 clone; its analog circuitry is entirely built from scratch to create an original sound. Also nothing more than a great kick; ranges to get into detail, and useful kick drum sounds throughout its settings!

FEATURES
'Hit' and 'Body' sections to sculpt the most important parts of a kick drum.
Hit-timbre and Hit-volume controls to shape sound of the transient.
Body saturation, resonance, decay and damping controls provide a varied sound palette.
Clear pitch control section that is carefully scaled to match a kick drum.
Two VCA shapes that provide different flavours.
Ducking or normal Envelope output to further sculpt and modulate.
Accent or VCA CV input switch to match your sequencing method.
Clean-up switch to remove rumble and decrease 'boxiness'."
