I recently purchased a Roland SPDS mixer for my band. I was wondering if any of you guys know anywhere I could find some sick bass drops to use for our live shows. Not dinky little booms. I mean BOOMS! Like an earthquake just hit. So far my search has come up empty handed and all I have are the bass drops that come with the SPDS which are pretty lame, for metal at least. I am about to go into Audacity and look at creating my own, but I don't have a ton of skill there so I don't know how that will turn out.

Metal heads please help me out!

Thanks,
Insomniac
 
It's not so much the unit you have, you just have to get the soundguy to boost the level on that channel, because if you're not going through a full PA system, you won't hear the bass drop through a subwoofer or a vocal PA.

Besides, why do you want to do that anyway?
 
I'm not sure how helpful this is, but this was my contribution to another thread.
The people on TabIt use a low whistle and then pitch bend it even lower. I tried to find an example, but had no success, so I just wrote my own. I don't know if these are in context though, because I don't listen to a lot of music with bass drops in it, so I just put them in two places that sounded decent to me.
