Yeah man - with you there. Yesterday I had someone asking for AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE, and came across a nice combination of the AIGC 4 follwoed by an El Uni as I described before, sharing the load. I was surprised how good it sounded. It had no right to sound that un-crap at that sort of level, with that amount of bass.

Finally, try turning OFF the extra Release element on the main page, this needs to be done in dense, punchy dance music. For calmer music like jazz, blues etc I usually turn up the Release time to around 4 or 5ms.
I tried turning that off once but wasn't into it - I shall investimegate further forthwith, what what.
