[hduncan]

I am not interested in simply using it, I want to know the makeup of the sound. I want to know what one would describe that kick sound as so that I can start to learn what adjectives the mixing world uses to describe that sort of kick...

but also the technical wave-form description, like... it obviously isnt a recorded kick drum, its synthetic, and it sounds almost like a staccato electric bass guitar note void of any pick noise..

where would I start if I wanted to make that sound from scratch?
without samples.
