brush cymbals?

brush cymbals?

2004-04-24 by Nick Carroll

I own the pre-DTXpress II kit and I am looking for a very soft 
closed hi-hat sound, like the sound of a brush stroke on hi-hat 
cymbal.  The brush kit on my module gives brush strokes on drum pads 
but not on cymbals.  But what about on DTXpress II or DTXpress III?  
Can anyone please check it out and let me know?

Can a DTXpress II owner please answer this question of mine? I own 
the previous model and I am looking for a very soft closed hi-hat 
sound, like the sound of a brush stroke on hi-hat cymbal. The brush 
kit on my module gives brush strokes on drum pads but not on 
cymbals. Is it the same with the DTXpress II (and III)?

Nick:

My apologies for the silence there! :)

It looks like no one chimed in on this becasue no one has a good asnwer
(the usual reason, mostly we would all chime in if we had a perfect or
near perfect fix!)>

I only have the DtxpressII, and most of the hat samples are stick-click
impact sounding. As a possible suggestion, you could try assigning a
"foot close" sound to the pad and see if that could make something
simular to what you're looking for. Again, Sorry for the delay in
response... :)

Thanks anyway, Vern. I've tried the foot-close sounds and 
unfortunately they all come with a "thump" noise of one's foot 
coming down hard on the pedal!  I might just have to dig out 
my "real" hi-hats and play them with brush in hand!
