Dont be fooled by the simple basic look of this device, it sounds really good...better than alot of the dedicated kick drum vsts on the market !
Thank you so much. I can't believe the TTA Kick has been out for 6 years and I've never even heard of it. They should have been screaming the news across the galaxy.

I hope you don't mind, but I took inspiration from your mods and tacked on a few more and uploaded it at the link below. It has FM/PM, 12/24db multi-mode filters with dedicated envelopes/lfos, midi to pitch and 60 preset slots.
