im sure you posted a link for a vst which fattened up kicks.
ive searched but no avail.. did you post such a vst or did my
mind want it so much i imagined it :eh:

i posted several, wait a second:

CamelPhatFree

http://www.camelaudio.com/devsite/images/CamelPhatFree-large.jpg

Freeware distortion and compressor
CamelPhatFree is Camel Audio's, completely free compressor and distortion freeware vst plugin effect. It features a great compressor and distortion with one incredibly easy to use interface. Its great for use on drums, bass and just about anything else that needs fattening up!

If you like CamelPhatFree, why not check out other vst plugins, such as CamelPhat. CamelPhat adds stereo operation, MIDI control, and a lot more filtering and distortion options.

there's a pro version of this as well....


Elogoxa BAXXPANDER

Vintage style saturation/bass expander unit,
presented as VST effect. We think this plugin is specially good to add warmth and saturation to drums
and basses, and with vocal tracks that need a little punch. It uses very little CPU, and includes 8 factory presets.

THD
analog-style saturator

This is no typical high-gain distortion device, nor a 'decimator' or bit crusher.
I was searching for something that sounded a bit like my old tube bass preamp that I like using for fattening up vocals or drum tracks.
Because good outboard gear is expensive and sonically equivalent software simulators are rare (and expensive as well), I started to lurk behind the curtain, thinking of creating something to fit my personal needs.
I simply could not find suitable simulators out there.

Well, what is going on inside analog gear, especially when it comes to the fact, that tube equipment always sounds different as solid-state devices?
Many people say 'oh, it's soft saturation that leads to more harmonics'. It took me quite a long time to realize that this is just some part of the story.
Apart from generating the 'right' kind and amount of harmonics, analog circuits are actually doing a lot of dynamic action. Considering a vacuum tube, this behaviour partly depends on the tube itself and also on the electrical parts surrounding it.

Now, THD is an approach to a very few of such aspects. The plugin is intended for a mixer's insert path to act as a preamp stage. It smoothes out the transients, gives more overall gain and warms a bit.

You might also want it to simulate a tape machine driven to the limit to achieve that typical warmth & fatness associated with analog recordings. THD uses similar methods to alter the frequency response of 'hot' tapes as analog recorders do.

As always, trust your ears. It may sound good for some applications, but unsuitable for others.

dominion
signal modelling device

What is dominion?
If you were searching for a tool to shape the envelope of a signal, giving you total control of the signal's attack & sustain phase, dominion is certainly something for you!
But it's got more to offer...

A short overview of the features:


Envelope section. Adjust attack & sustain independently, regardless of input level. Plus, you have control over the envelopes' time constants. Imagine pulling a drummer up front or pushing him to the background by dragging just a single slider! Feel like moving the walls around him? Again, a single push enhances the room information or can make the sound really dry.
Imagine doing things like this with other instruments as well... :)

Saturation stage. Following digitalfishphones tradition, the plugin can help to reduce harshness often associated with digital recordings, giving back some warmth and life to your source by modelling classic analog equipment. The tonal character stays adjustable within a broad range.

High frequency details section. Similar to classic exciter circuits, this section allows you to brighten up a signal, giving transparency and depth by generating additional harmonics.

Non-clipping output stage. Like the endorphin compressor, a brickwall waveshaper circuit ensures that the output won't exceed -0.1dBFS, while remaining sonically clean.

The full working principle can be read in the user's manual that is included in the download file.
I would definitely recommend that you read through the sections in order to fully understand the concepts and their potentials.

That should get you started :rambo:
