This isn't your typical 909-style kick drum—the Hexinverter Mutant BD9 is a modern expansion of bass drum sounds. While the primary VCO can generate classic, analog sinusoidal kicks, the waveform can be switched to a square wave for extra punch. If that isn't enough, try adding in a sub-oscillator up to two octaves below the primary VCO for enhanced girth.
There are also built in envelopes for pitch and amplitude, and an output overdrive circuit for adding hair and warmth to your kicks. The Mutant BD9 would find a home with anyone looking for a classic kick drum voice with versatility and much more to offer in a contemporary modular world.
