you need to sidechain the clap to the snare, and run that through an analog tape deck.

Well just an update I did learn some other real basic things that give my claps wayy more character.
Most of its simple LFO changes at the end or midway through the sample. Like slowly dipping the pitch down on the clap, putting it through hipass and dipping in lower frequencies with LFO, layering with snares like we discussed, and for the real watery claps I'll cut out some attack, reverb the SHIT out of it, and throw it on sidechain.
And I still refuse to delay any of my claps, don't know why, just don't like it.

I was interested in making a corsten style clap in my lastest track, more the length than the exact sound. I managed it in about 20 mins. Got a short mid range snare. Then got a typical 909 clap. Added a crap load of pre-delay to the clap and a bit of traditional reverb to extend the sound. Then added this to the snare. I then simply chopped the 'tail' of the reverb to the length I wanted the overall clap to be. Took a few goes but I got it so the length worked perfectly with the rhythm of the rest of the percussion. The remaining tweaks were just eq'ing. I'm very happy with the result. I'm going to use it as a template for future claps.
