thanks i will try this out.

btw what is the difference between open and closed? is it like, say if in real life u hit a cymbal with a drumstick and if u grabbed it afterwards to stop the echo. closed would be if u grabbed it, open would be if u let it echo out?

wasnt sure. so it is

an actual hihat you can close down with your foot. when you hit it then it's a short sound ts. When you release your foot the space between the 2 hihat cymbals increases, causing them to resonate against each other when hit, as tsschch.

Drum machines were originally meant to emulate actual drum kits, hence the names we still use.

i dont have anywhere to upload it..

if u have 'Kenneth Thomas feat. Colleen Riley - Ghost In The Machine (Abbott & Chambers Remix)' it starts at 2:34 - the loop that starts after a rip of bass. if u dont have it, download it, its a shit hot tune

Ride X000 X000 X000 X000
Closed hats 0X0X 0X0X 0X0X 0X0X
Open hats 0xX0 0xX0 0xX0 0xX0


x = small velocity
X = louder velocity
0 = No Sound

audio jelly. make sure its 'Kenneth Thomas feat. Colleen Riley - Ghost In The Machine (Abbott & Chambers Remix)'

Abbott & Chambers own alter ego records its their remix. best played loud and bassful, the best remix it has a great mix of elements they meld well unlike the mike shiver mix where the kick is too loud the abbott & chambers mix is very organic. play from beginning to end fully - great flow

what is 'ride'

A ride is a cymbal that generally goes on each kick beat, its quite quiet although obviously still audible

i got it. when u say small and louder velocity u mean? just volume?

Yeah, have your offbeat open hat at normal volume and have an open hat ont the beat before it at a much lower volume,
