Tiptop BD909 Bass Drum - Manual (Page 4)

The sound of the BD909.

The BD909 really shines when it is played alongside a nice big bass line. Most of
the energy of the BD909 is centered in the mid range of the sonic spectrum, the
result being that there is headroom for deep low bass lines to fill up the lower end
without “fighting” the bass drum in the mix. This quality of the BD909
makes it a real joy to work and mix with. Try mixing two Z3000’s set to 30-50HZ
into the Z2040 with a snappy envelope from the Z4000 to the Z2040 FM IN.
Set the Z2040 frequency very low so it creates a bass line and mix that with the
BD909; you get a great-feeling groove that is full of energy.
