I will give a treat to whoever tells me how to make a kickdrum lick this
Soundcloud

just a sample with a lot of top end click, kinda whats popular in heavy metal right now because guitars and basses are tuning lower and lower and there needs to be a way for the kick to cut through. throw it through some parallel distortion and maybe a little parallel compression. or just sample a kick from any metal band that put out an album in the last 5 years.

i dont want to sample someone else's kick. just wanted to make myown

well he just told you its just a kick with a good amount of higher freq click. thats a start. what daw do you use? i use reason 5 and i kinda just mess about in kong till i get something i like.

im in Fl studio

I didnt mean to just sample it and use it outright, you would still need to process it. the suggestion of sampling was just a quick way to get some good sounding top end kick sounds without searching through a ton of random samples that you would probably end up having to EQ the hell out of anyway.

Just sounds like an organic kick drum sample? (as opposed to a 909, or whatever) with some reverb on it

compress the shit out of it, then boost 4 khz

Unless you use FL's Fruit kick or another drum synth, pretty much any kick you use will be a sample
