me vs hi hats

[SimonPHC]

the thing that bothers me most about your hihats is that they sound like they're not from the same 'kit'. Even though the sounds in a drum kit are very different from each other, they do complement each other, your hihats don't at all.

get new sounds, make them on operator, sample them, do whatever you need to do to make then 'talk' with each other and the rest of the drum kit.

i think we have a winner

as the antagonist it's you against the world, right? when you first signed on I completely thought it was a troll name, soooooo wrong.


the new hats remind me of gas escaping into space making the track sound more sci fi. it's a smoother sound than the first take you put up.

[the_antagonist]

its a real marvel of the modern day that folk from all over the world have help shape this track. my thanks go out to everyone for the continued support.

i love sci fi techno!!!

[McQ714]

i think that sounds much better.. at least to my ears it does! i would like to hear it layered with a closed hat to get a little bit of a click on it. or if you've adjusted the attack on that sample, maybe bring the attack time down just a little.

[the_antagonist]

all new hats. 3 layers two closed and one open.

No audio at work, so I can't listen to the tune....

but have you tried putting a sidechained AutoFilter on the hat track - sidechained to the kick or other percussion?

Perhaps you should listen to the track.

HAHAHAHAHAHA critiquing audio you haven't heard. Brilliant.
