e.g., you could add to the same Choke group a third Sound containing a half-opened hi-hat. To
know how to do this, please refer to section
where Choke groups
are explained in detail.
With a single Hi-hat Plug-in, you could also recreate an open-closed hi-hat behavior by disabling
Gate
and modulating the
Decay
in your Pattern. This rather advanced task might give you even finer
control over the duration of your various hi-hat sounds, and thereby help you to give your hi-hat
track a “human” feel. Furthermore, since this method makes use of a single Sound you can quickly
modify other parameters of your Hi-hat Plug-in — your changes will seamlessly apply to all your hi-
hat variants!
