very interesting. I have spotted at least 4 kick layers, but I have a question for you Bobby.

How do you think he manages to be all of them phase coherent, and thus not having some sort of bass freq cancellation?

Cheers, Giacomo, Italy

I'm sure it's just a matter of tuning it by ear. If it sounds right, then it is right.
