i know and use it very often..

but i prefer a long soft cymbal. it fills more space and with reverb it brings a nice deepness into the track

so long

Something else that is pretty commonly done is on top of that, throw a reverse HH or reverse Snare sound at slightly lower volume than it's forward counterpart. This gives the kick that "sticky" sound that you hear in a lot of tracks these days.

Great tip. So, do you mean let the reverse HH, the HH counterpart and the kick hit all at once, or just the reverse HH and kick or what?

And when you say that it makes it sticky, do you mean snappy?

I am not exactly sure if this is what dj sean is talking about but this can be done as well.Use the reverse sound(snare,HH,etc....)right before the kick+HH combo so it kinda swoops into the kick.It'll be just a split second before, maybe a 64th note before just depending on how long the reverse sound is.Right as the reverse sound is ending the kick should be starting.

It depends on the samples using. Sometimes you want the reverse snare to come in a little split second after the main snare/hh, and othertimes (like the above poster mentioned) you want it to whoosh into the main forward snare. Adjust to your taste.

The kick from Outback - Minds in Motion has a reverse snare in it. Run a highpass filter at around 800hz over one of the kicks and you'll see what I mean.
