Hey Pedro, How are you?

I'm listening on a really bad pair of headphones.. and YT is very bitcrushed tonight.. but that sounds like a rolling bassline with a bit of sidechain to me. It doesnt sound like a Kick that is going through a reverb to me. Now maybe I'm wrong, cos its late & as I said, these headphones are bad.

What are you trying to make?

Bassline out of a kick going through a reverb?
A rolling bassline (sounds like Kicks or toms to me).

I think that sounds like a minimal-y type shuffly bassline.. maybe someone else could verify as I dont trust my ears atm :)

I don't use Ableton sorry but I'd say you can achieve this with just the right pre-delay settings and 100% diffusion on the verb, a Plate or Short Hall should be a sufficient verb type for it. Also roll of everything from about 200Hz and up. There is a synth coming in later in the track that helps out with the bottoms structure but from start you vsn get the same result with the verb rumble.

Of-course I'm not 100% sure this is how he done (but nearly) it, if you really want I can ask Davide.
