Title: hihat sounds and foot splashes
Post by: BURNIN AMBITION on October 20, 2012, 09:42:07 AM
hi there. i wanted to do foot splash with hi hat, but in most of sounds (either created by me or 2box original sounds) i couldnt create the sound sof a foot splash. i see few that create a foot splash like the kasmir kit. any ideas what sample the hi hat sounds should have to foot splash? i could do it easily in my roland td9, i could create the splash sound with foot easily. so i know it should happen in all sounds of 2box but i guess they must miss a sample or so? any ideas?

Most of the 2Box Hi Hat dsnds do have foot splash samples in them, a few do not, but the majority do. Like all the new added Hi Hats have foot splash sounds ... Groove 13, EU 14 SCF. The AAX Ecel, Evolution, Groove 15, Swiss Med 12 and Swiss 14 ...

And all Superior Drummer 2 SDX libraries as well as some EZX libraries have Open Pedal/Foot splash type sounds available, except Evil Drums ... no foot splash on that one.

So if you do not get foot splash sounds it may be you need to tweak that response in the module, there is a couple of lines in the manual, it doesn't go into great detail, but there is a Level you can look at, and Sensitivity to set for the foot pedal sounds.

LEVEL shows the pedal trigger level in dBs. It is also shown on the
UNIT-TRIG page when the hihat channel is selected.

SENS sets the sensitivity +-6 dB. Adjust it so only a firm foot down
gives full trig level (0 dB).

When you splash your foot pedal .... Ie ... quickly push to floor and release ... You should get the foot splash sound. When you push and hold you should get Foot Chick sounds.
