Hi,
I'm looking for a way to make a good sounding rataplan on an electronic
snare-drum.
I'm not looking for the typical army-snare but rather the funky style:
just hit the snare and keep applying pressure to the stick so that it
bounces a few times. Some kind of electronic equivalent of

I tried short sequences of 64th or 48th notes in hydrogen (various
drum-kits) and seq24 (general-midi jazz-kit) - to no avail.
If I remember correctly this is not the most easy exercise for a drummer
though it is basically simple: you just hit the drum twice with one
stick and then twice again with the other. The main effect is, that you
avoid the machine-gun effect that unveils a drum computer immediately.
The not-so-easy part is to do that very very fast...
So let us try it in H2:
put two slightely different snaresounds in two instrument channels.
set resolution to 32
set notes like this:
xx xx xx
xx xx xx
an so forth...
I tried it right now (with just one snare an different velocity) and it
sounds, like one can come near your example (with some serious fiddeling
though...)
good luck ;-)

p.s.: if there is a experienced drummer out there that knows a better
way, please upgrade :-)
Do I miss a specific sound-font? Is there a trick
(echo/slap-back/reverb)? I would not say no to Csound or supercollider
synth. Anything that I can trigger with MIDI is fine.
Thanks in advance for any hints,
robin
