Subject: a cool technique for KICK drum

When using my handsonic to play electronic kit sounds, I find for now, a great setup I like is:

closed hi hat on top left (left fingers)
snare underneath btm. left (right index)

and the kick drum btm. right is
the (heel of the right palm)

the heel of the right palm is used in conjuction with
the right index (snare)

I have been just doing simple type breakbeats but i find it extremely satisfying, and a bit more intuitive than using just a finger for
the kick sound because the heel technique allows me to simulate the feeling of response when using an actual kick pedal.

hope this is helpful in anyway.
