Since syntakt has similar machines as rytm how can you not get a good kick ! ? I don’t own a syntakt yet but was poking around in here to steal techniques ahaha . But anyways when I had the rytm I felt like the kick was just muddy in the mix and I fixed this by routing the kick out from the rytm mix by itself. And I made great sounding kicks with the analog machines in the rytm so I feel like I already know all those machines and will be good with them on the syntakt ? I definantly got good 909s with the kick HARD on rytm and then made 808s with the bass Tom machine track. So maybe the soft kick will make an 808 ! I’m really looking to make good MD like kicks on the syntak.
