To make a dull drumpattern/drumloop sound BIG, connect the drum(loop)machine to a JLimit. Set the input gain to a high value, the threshold to 0, and the release to something 'round 50 ms. Connect this to the Master (or a reverb, if you like). Also connect the plain, unmodified signal, and lower it's volume a bit. Big-Beat Style! (Esp. great with drumloops that contain a lot of cymbals! : Frambooz
