Have a kick on its own channel and set up a reverb on a return track.

Play about with the reverb, reflect 6, diffuse -30, decay about 8, size 50, pre-delay 250, dry wet 100, stereo 0, no input processing

Add some eq and compression on the kick and the reverb if you want.

Try a few different kicks and maybe a low pass on the return track to get the sound you want.

Ask the neighbours how it sounds :D
Xone:DB4, MBP, and a lovely set of one's n' two's

thanks man ! I know set up the A return like you told me to do and put some eq and compression on it but doesn't get the sound that I want :( it's not deep enough. Do you still have some tips for how to make it very very deep? :P My neighbours want it too :P
