Sabian Fierce 13" hihat

[Krillo]

Hi all,

Here's a Sabian Fierce 13" hihat that I sampled using an vintage AKG D202 coaxial / dual-driver dynamic mic. There is a little analog EQ applied, but still a very natural sound with some mid growl which these hats have acoustically. I recorded it in the same fashion as the hihat files on the 2box site. The file has 5 levels of open-ness edge (shank) and 4 levels of open-ness bow (tip) and foot splashes. The file is 32-bit float, 44.1kHz mono. File size is 78,7MB

wowww
id say i love you but it may sound weird coming from aa man
lol

honestly thank you so much!! i am downloading as we speak!!!!
if you make any more, please share them!!!
(i feel too stupid to go make my own so i depend on people like yourself
thanx once again

[BURNIN AMBITION]

i just noticed that it is in wav form... is a dsnd file possible? please???

Thanks for the kind words
I actually downloaded the tool for making dsnd's but since I don't yet have the 2box module, it seemed like a lot of work for me... It should be fairly easy for someone familiar with the process though. I was doing the samples for my ddrum, and I thought I'd make a file appropriate for making dsnd's. I will give it a shot, but I think someone else will beat me to it and hopefully post it in this thread

hm...

The DrumIt Five Editor wants separate files for every hit  I thought that wasn't necessary.
The Dsoundtool needs Java installed and I'm not so keen on installing that.
Manfred did the Yamaha snare pretty quick, maybe he could help...

Why?  Every PC should have Java runtime installed. http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp.  It won't do any harm whatsoever.

well as i said i am stupid with that. i cant make dsnds. i tried once and i think my pc died. anyway, thank you for all your help!!!!!!!!!

Was responding to Krillo, but bear in mind Burnin that none of us could make .dsnd files at first, you have to keep trying and do as much reading and learning as you can, and eventually you will be able to do it if you try.  Its really quite easy once you have done a few, and you get better as you go.

As for this .wav file, there is no way to identify which parts of it are for which layers - if you want a file made, you need to be able to identify the edge, tip and bow hits, and identify the layers.  One file with all the hits is fine, but you would need to provide a single .wav file for each sample set (e.g. 25 bow hits in one file, 25 edge hits in another etc...).

Hi Krillo -

thanks for this.  I'm very interested to hear how it sounds.  Hi-hats are where packs like SD and
BFD seem to struggle to offer samples to equal the effectiveness of the other kit pieces.

Soon as I've made a .dsnd I'll post it up somewhere.

Many thanks for sharing.

One really easy way is to listen to the file. If you don't hear any difference go buy a Roland kit.
Another idea is to ask me. As for you first OT-question - I don't have any use for Java.

Thats very helpful Krillo lol.  I've already had a Roland kit and sold it for a 2Box.

Seeing as you're new on this forum, I'll ignore your sarcastic and childish response and focus on the issue.  If you didn't have a use for Java in Windows (if that is what you are running) then why are you trying to run DSoundTool?  It requires Java, therefore if you want to use DSoundTool, you do have a use for Java on your system.

As for the files, my point was that its much easier for people to make .dsnd files when the samples are labelled, and not just lumped together in one file.  Example:

Sabian 13" Hi-Hats sampled from SD 2.0:

Zone 3: Bow Open 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow 83% Open 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow 66% Open 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow 50% Open 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow 33% Open 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow 16% Open: 32 samples
Zone 3: Bow Closed: 32 samples

Zone 8: Edge Open 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge 83% Open 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge 66% Open 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge 50% Open 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge 33% Open 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge 16% Open: 32 samples
Zone 8: Edge Closed: 32 samples

Zone 9: Foot Splash: 32 samples

Total samples = 480

Thats a lot of samples to manage and no one wants to wade through hundreds of them - it takes much more work to put together.  Obviously your file is a lot less samples, but it helps to organise them for packaging in DSoundTool or the official editor nonetheless.

Thanks for adding the file Krillo - we appreciate the effort!

Thanks Krillo for sharing this.

But we have to convert that wav file into dsnd file for playing it with the drumit 5 module.
So for each thing we need a wav file, so for open hihat semi open hihat close hihat ect..
1 hihat wav file can not work.

Anyway thank you.
