Can it be made velocity-sensitive? (Sorry if I’m just missing something obvious.)

If he really makes the cowbell modeler it should naturally be called ChowBell

In reply to Zak. Glad to hear that BPB Saturator is getting some love, too. :)

In reply to MRG. Let's be real though: EDM kicks extremely played out at this point anyway.

I see “Chowdhury DSP”, I grab it.

And sure enough, it’s great.

Simple controls and fast workflow. I will use this for layering with other stuff to help get the kick to exactly where I need it to be. Add a bit more meat, or click, this has you covered. If you combo it with your favourite distortion or saturation after you can achieve a ton. I tried it out with BPB’s free saturator, and it worked very well.

Fantastic. What an absolute gem to the audio community.

The model is simple, so don’t expect modern EDM kicks out of it. Nothing wrong with that, does the old-school analog thing well. I’ll definitely watch for improvements and added features.
