The KNOCK 2 Black Friday deal takes 20% off this drum-focused multi-effect plugin from KNOCK Audio, bringing it to $119 until Dec 1, 2026.
KNOCK 2 is built to make drums hit harder and cut through a mix. It was designed by platinum producer and sound designer DECAP, and the sound is based on his DRUMS THAT KNOCK kit series.
The plugin carries every sound parameter DECAP uses for his own drum sound, and it ships with factory presets he made.
The signal chain is made of modules, each aimed at one job on a drum bus, a loop or a single hit:
The maker points SATURATE at 808s, one shots and drum loops. The SUB pitch control is aimed at breakbeats and at tuning a kick to the key of the song.
SATURATE gains GRIT, CREAM, BUMP and WEAR controls. CLIP adds three new modes: CRUNCH, ROUND and FRESH, plus a gain reduction meter.
SUB gets DUCK, COLOR and LO CUT. There is also a new PURR effect and an intensity visualizer.
You can now reorder the modules in the chain, and every module has character modes. Each module also has its own MIX and INPUT controls.
The MAGIC button suggests new preset ideas in real time. Gain matching has been improved too.
A Zero Latency Mode means the plugin can also be used in a live performance setting. A Linear Phase Mode is included for work where phase matters.
The maker says KNOCK 2 works in all DAWs. It is designed to be easy to pick up whether you are just starting out or have years of mixing behind you.
On a bus, the multiband PUNCH and COMP modules let you shape transients and dynamics across the spectrum instead of treating the whole drum mix the same.
Yes. The KNOCK 2 Black Friday deal is 20% off, bringing the plugin to $119 until Dec 1, 2026. It is a drum-focused multi-effect plugin from KNOCK Audio, designed by DECAP.
KNOCK 2 packs PUNCH, SATURATE, CLIP, COMP, SUB and AIR modules, plus the MAGIC button and the PURR effect. DECAP's factory presets come bundled in as well.
The maker says KNOCK 2 is supported by all DAWs. It is built for both newcomers and experienced producers, and Zero Latency Mode lets it run in a live performance context too.
The big addition is the COMP module, which adds multiband processing. Other changes include a reorderable signal chain, per-module MIX and INPUT, Linear Phase Mode, an intensity visualizer and improved gain matching.
