8.2.8 Kick – Maple
The Maple kick is an acoustic bass drum emulation that provides a realistic and organic sound.
It is suitable for any production where a supporter kick is needed. It fits perfectly with acoustic
instruments and its room parameters make it fit seamlessly into any mix.
The parameters described below are presented as they appear in the Control area (Ar-
range view). The same parameters are available in the Plug-in panel within the Plug-in
Strip (Mix view). See 8.1.5, Pitch Range, Tuning, and MIDI Notes for more information
on this.
