The built-in distortion (four algorithms: Tube, Tape, Clip, Rectify) is applied before the final limiter. This is psychoacoustically optimal: clipping the body layer adds even harmonics without blurring the click layer’s transients.

The pitch envelope is not a standard ADSR; it is a dual-stage curve: Sonic Academy KICK 2 -Mac-

In a typical sampler, changing a kick’s pitch destroys its character (time-stretching artifacts). In KICK 2, changing the drawn waveform’s fundamental frequency recalculates the harmonics. This allows for key-tracking kicks that remain phase-coherent. The built-in distortion (four algorithms: Tube, Tape, Clip,
