could hope for.

This device gives you the top and the bottom focused in a way that you can
only hope for when recording kickdrum. It is better than most samples out
there. We love big bottom and this has got the ultimate when it comes to
kick drum sounds!!! When you have to work in rooms that just don't sound
right this port will give you what you dream about."
