wide range of bass drum percussive sounds.
The implementation of thru-zero FM/PM BD-Z can deliver an immense variety of
textures and harmonics, it has an amount of control over the modulation input
to preserve the primary kick drum sound or not.
Additionally the implementation of amplitude modulation to the sound core can
add harmonics from the modulation source to be able to shape the sound,
transform it, morph it into many other drums sounds like bongos, congas, etc.
Attention carefully was considered to maintain the signal gain always punchy
so when the amplitude decay or the distortion is fully open it won’t get out
of control.
The distortion can deliver more abrasive tones, it has a dedicated accent like
