Hey i was wondering if anyone could help me, at the moment i am writing a track with a deep bass kick which doesnt really come trhough when played on a small stereo, something with a sub and i can hear it but on something small it sounds like a gap instead of a the kick.

Is there a way i can make the kick sound clear on all stereo's? (not in volume)

Thanks for the help

You may be cutting out too many of the mid and high frequencies for the kick to stand out. Usually I like to combine a longer, bassy kick with one or two snappier mid range ones. Check out the samples section of the forum and you'll find more than enough kick sounds to choose from Smile
