Regarding FL studio, are there any proper vsti's to use for creating your drum(line)s? Or do most just use the step sequencer in fl studio?

:dunce:
I use FPC for drum programming. It enables me to "humanize" my hits without too much switching, and then link all of them to separate mixer tracks.
Drummax lets you make drum sounds if that's what you meant?

And I think Lucaz is the next Ajapai. That tune is fucking dope man!
Ive just had a listen to some of he's stuff and im being serious i think i could easily make tunes like that with the right mixdown

its supposed to either make the drum hit harder or softer by changing the volume of the initial click. in other words, turn the big dial to the right some amount, should make it hit a bit harder.

Why? You don't need a controller to use it. I don't have one. I do all my drumwork in midi.
Do you say zerbaman? Or do you say zebraman?

It's just the 4x4 mpc layout though and makes it better to tap out beats on an mpc. Otherwise, I've been using standard fl samplers for drums since day 1.

your kick is completely fine dude don't worry about it. in fact your kick sounded "fatter" than the track you have listed. seriously don't over do it either it's good.
