For some reason, I always see kick tutorials and kick samples on this forum, but how about some fresh clap samples and clap techniques, i.e. reverb, compression, etc.
How about it then? |

try this.....you need:
A. 1 x microphone
B. 2 x human hands
place A in front both objects B and setup your audio recorder, hold objects B about 15inchs apart from each other then qucikly bring them both together. Repeat this at different speeds for more variations in the sounds produced.
now who said I post useless comments......:crazy: |

Never use any huhge reverb on a clap, doesn't sound nice at all. Some 1/2 delay can sound very nice.
Claps can sound cheezy though, pay attention to that! |

You could use a big long reverb on a clap then buss this signal off to a gate which will cut off the sound after a particular threshhold point. I recommend you try this, it can achieve great results.
There is never any right or wrong way to do things just give it a go and if it sounds good then Wolla! |

I *heart* claps. Let's form a "claps alliance"!
No, seriously... every clap is different, but I usually stick a 3:1-4:1 compressor on 'em and a light reverb. EQ settings depend on what you're trying to do... to blend with the kick, I'll add about a 1.5 octave bump around 300-500 Hz; to make it brighter, about 1 octave at 2500-3500 Hz. Sometimes they sound too airy, in which case a high shelf at around 4 kHz will do the trick.
That's just me though, and like I said, every clap is different, as well as every track and every producer. |
