Critic Reviews

Free Plugin - Thump2 From Metric Halo | Pro Tools - The leading website for Pro Tools users

production-expert.com

Metric Halo's Thump is a free plugin that successfully breathes new life into the classic technique of adding a sub tone beneath a kick drum. With its dual envelope-driven oscillators, Thump offers full control over pitch and amplitude, ensuring rich bass without the monotonous "one note sub" sound. It's lauded for its ease of use and the added benefit of no iLok requirement, making it a versatile, cross-platform tool available in AAX, AU, and VST formats for both Mac and Windows. However, the review lacks significant criticism, focusing primarily on its positive attributes and simplicity.

Even against pay sub-bass generators I feel like thump is one of the best. The volume and pitch envelopes are so useful and the inclusion of 2 independent bands? genious! its just a great plugin for managing your ultra low end in musical way. If you have this and the waves maxxbass plugin the only thing keeping you from having perfect bottom end in every genre is your ears, man.
