yes, i have heard that, too. there's a plugin from ozone called vinyl which tries to create a vinyl sound with everything that you send through and you can choose settings between the 1950s and now. it just might help to see what the vinyl cut might do to the track hihat-wise i suppose. just to see if you need to work on your hats at all.
