Is the output of edge~ somehow different to a bang? The attack of my kick sounds weird...

Dear Max community,

I'm really confused: I patched a kick synth which is in a sub patcher. If I trigger it with a bang, it sounds really nice. But if it's triggered by the output of edge~ (which to my understanding is just a bang?) it's sounds really different. The attack of each kick is different, it has this phasey, clicky quality kind of like a free running osc. My first guess was that multiple bangs come in quick succession. I know that's not the case, but this is a bit what it sounds like.

Now the reason I'm using edge~ here is because I wanted to do some sequencing with signal objects, like a subdiv~ going into a what~ which is then converted by edge~ into a bang.

To make things even weirder: It only happens with my kick synth. But I'm stuck looking for a problem with this synth, as it works perfectly fine unless I trigger it with edge~. Therefore I won't go into details with this kick synth to avoid making this post unnecessarily long.

I searched the forum before posting this, but all threads regarding edge~ problems referred to edge~ catching the start of a phasor cycle. I appreciate any kind of help or suggestion.
