Kick 2 KICK 3

So since the beta is no instant download I "studied" the product page and I gotta say it got me excited. It looks like you guys improved everything that needed some love and also added a bunch of cool new features. I think if the kick analyzer works good people will happily throw their money at you :lol:

Looking forward to it. Any word on price or availability yet?

Firstly, congrats on the beta. Just started with it and must say it feels like a big improvement over Kick 2.

One thing I can't figure out though is that after zooming in to a section of the waveform to analyse something, using the magnifying glass icon, I can't seem to get back to the waveform prior to zooming in. Is there a way to return to the original view. Would be great if maybe a double click or something.

so the top bar above the waveform - where the beats / bars are written, thats a grabbable zoom location.

interesting you haven't seen that though, are you a non ableton user?
as maybe thats only intuiative to ableton / bitwig users

thanks! sounds good and fair.
already applied for the beta to have a test drive, looking forward and I am excited.
Kick 2 was my main kick tool for the last 6 years, used in about 90% of our tracks, so I'm really into the workflow and hopefully kick 3 builds on that and adds (maybe some of my requested) features.

Same. The hype is real.

Now I see it, thanks.
I am an Ableton user primarily with a bit of Bitwig.

I had to try several times to get into the beta, and several more times to join the discord server here, a lot errors, but finally made it!

Btw Kick 3 is great!

Currently the only features I'd love to get in the future are more reverb controls (decay/stretch control) and 1 more row of effects for the inserts (so we can have 3 effects for each insert and main).

Thanks Sonic Academy, good work :)

Can this analyze kick drums and resynthesize them?

*edit Yes, brilliantly too. Great!
