Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll try them out and see what works :) We're actually looking to bring the quartz patch into Arkaos (which I've done with other patches to varying degrees of success), but I haven't been able to isolate the kick as of yet (although granted I don't have much experience in Arkaos so that's a bit trial and error at the moment).
But all much appreciated! Thank you!
