Drum Machine Trigger Pad Stops Another?

[jestermgee]

Since I received the Suite box and have checked out some of the nice drum kits that are included I have noticed when many "live sampled" kits use an open hat on 1 pad and a closed hat on another, if I trigger an open hat then hit the closed hat pad it will cut the open hat sample off (as you would actually hear when closing the hat on a real kit).

I haven't found how to achieve this trick of triggering a pad to silence the sound of another pad. Any ideas?

It is called "choke group". That should set you in the right direction

Yup, choke groups.
Here's what it looks like.

Awesome, thanks for that.

I have been trying to de-construct the Suite kits which actually work quite well (took me days to construct similar kits years ago using Halion 1). I got a bit lost because they appear to use a multi-sample SIMPLER (not sampler) which you cannot access or modify (Ableton programmers can only create these). So a lot of the magic is hidden.

Right-click the title bar of a Sampler or Simpler to convert to the other

Edit: bonus tip, if you use Operator, on all the oscillators for the amp envelope page. On the bottom left for looping. There is a "one-shot" which relieves a lot of frustration for the decay and sustain of percussion in Drum Racks. Not sure if Sampler has a similar option.
