BigKick+ Bundle Black Friday Deal 2026: $24, 65% off

The BigKick+ Bundle Black Friday deal brings the kick drum design plugin BigKick together with its expansion packs for $24, 65% off, until Nov 29, 2026.

BigKick is a plugin for building kick drums by combining synthesis with samples. Plugin Boutique lists this bundle as an exclusive.

The maker pitches it as a way to stop digging through sample folders for the right kick.

What does BigKick do?

You can start from scratch or load presets from D-Product, the Freemasons, Kris O'Neil and others. The factory library holds more than 300 attack types and 110 presets.

The synthesis side is flexible enough to cover most electronic kick sounds, according to the maker. The sample side lets you bring in your own kicks and layer them with the synthesized body.

Main features

• Drag-and-drop sample import and export, so finished kicks go straight to your host's sampler or your desktop
• Pitch tuning to match your bass-line, or play the kick from a MIDI keyboard
• Two body models: Original for a range of styles, and Tough for a harder-edged, more electronic sound
• Overdrive, three waveforms and a hard clipper
• A high pass filter that guards against surprises in the sub-bass
• Built-in EQ and a punch control for placing the kick in the mix
• Auto-play, which works as an instant kick-drum metronome
• 100 bonus kick drums from the Loopmasters library

Split output mode sends the attack samples to a separate channel in your DAW. That lets you process the attack and the body with different plugins down the signal chain.

A second sample layer allows finer tuning of the kick. Preset management covers folder creation, renaming, easier browsing and preset-pack creation tools.

Which expansions are involved?

Two expansions are described alongside the plugin. Techno Kicks V3 with Dave Angel adds 64 presets: 32 attack hits and 32 attack presets. The maker says they suit all modern genres.

House Kicks V3 with Da Sunlounge also adds 64 presets, split the same way, aimed at House and 4/4 music. Both load through the BigKick Preset Manager.

Formats and system requirements

On Mac, it needs OS X 10.6 or later (64-bit only), in AAX for Pro Tools 10.3.6 and later, AU and VST 2.4. On Windows, it needs XP SP3, Windows 7 or above (64-bit only), in AAX and VST 2.4.

The maker says it works with most major DAW platforms. The interface is 750 pixels high, so very low-resolution monitors or netbooks may show minor issues in some sequencers.
