Dem doom images.
Have you tested it on higher notes? It sounds slightly more sustained which means it could be the sample but lower & being lower can affect the ‘quality’.
Kind of like Drum Loop #1, because it is in fact The Funky Drummer sample, but here on notessimo the BPM is higher for it but it has been pitch corrected & if you get it to loop at it’s original BPM, about 102 I think, it sound kinda crappy because you have to put it on a lower note.
That’s the only way i can think to explain it.
doesn’t it sound more like the rocket launcher explosion?
