I think Kris's suggestion of a differant sample could realyl be the best solution actually. Most times you cannot get the desired sound if the sample isn't exactly what you want in the first place.
However messing with compression values and the pitch of the sample might have some affect on it if you choose to use the same noise.

I hope Xfive dont think I was being arsey by swearing at him :oops: just a bit of banter geezer :lol:
:lol: ha ha, nah that's just Kris. LOL I think he was just giving you shit at the same time as giving advice...
im kinda on about the full top end of a track and how do I get it sounding not exactly bright but full.
I dont know maybe its somthing i shouldbe adressing like you both say as im choosing my sounds.
I just experiment the other night with distortion on hi hats and i got a few different interesting sounds. Made a few familiar techy sounding sounds with the hats.Quote:

or compress the living crap out of them.

Im still pissed this morning, so im not sure this makes sense.
F**k it! i really dont care.
i think that was a rather good idea?!Quote:

Sup boys!
Just wondering, On stuff like Speedy J (classic example) - How do you (or if its a sample can anyone send me it) get that snare thats SO SO light, I think it sits on the beat, but it must be a really long floaty snare or something because it almost merges into one continious tsssshhh tshhhhhh tshhhhhh tshhhhh sound and always floats right above the mix.
Anyone help me out? Cheers xxxx
dunno exactly what you mean, but i have found waves meta flanger set to 'stop' at ca. 50 % gives this somewhat krekc sound. or take more of the bass freqs out from the snare, so it get's alittle more floaty. dist? hefty compression?
mindful....
if your bothered, bring your loop into reason (oooooo) and wire whatever module ur using through a maeltrom... turn on the distortion, set it to 'noise' bobs ur uncle, fannys your aunt.

if your using samples, i find it handy to fade in some hats.
put a long reverb or decy tail & fade of the attack of the hat so it slides into the peak as opposed to jus decaying from it..
i do this then apply some light eq'd delay to widen it out & slide in & out of other his percussion.
or if you use Reason, pull back the start of the sound in the Redrum & remove the ting... this also allws the rest of the sound to be boosted a little more.
hope that helps :eh:
true about that one, perpetual and good ideas.
:twisted:
