  • Create a redrum drum computer and on the first channel put in kick drums on 1 5 9 and 13.
  • Now create an spider audio merger and splitter
  • Click your tab key and flip to the back of our synthesizers
  • Connect a wire from the L/R to channel one of the redrum
  • Connect a wire from the next connector on the spider to the next available channel in our mixer.

  1. This didn’t work for me at all…I followed the directions and ended up with something that sounds like a cat making love to a train. Can’t figure out if I’m doing something wrong or if there’s something missing or what, but it’s DEFINITELY not the bassline sound in the track at the beginning of the video…
