Element Description
MAIN Section
Engine Selects the engine used in the Hi-hat Plug-in. If you change this
setting, please refer to ↑8.4, The Hi-hats.
Tune Adjusts the pitch of the cymbal played by the middle C, measured
as a percentage. Available values range from 0.0 % to 100.0 %
(default: 50.0 %). For more details see ↑8.1.5, Pitch Range,
Tuning, and MIDI Notes.
Decay Adjusts the duration of the sound, measured as a percentage.
Available values range from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default: 65.0 %). A
short decay produces a closed hat; a long decay gives an open hi-
hat or cymbal.
Gate When enabled, the decay of the cymbal is choked by the end of the
note. When disabled (default), the cymbal plays as a one-shot
sound, i.e. until the end of its tail, no matter when the note is
released, although the sound duration will still depend on the Decay
parameter (see above).
Source Selects the sampled timbre to be used as source. Six modes are
available — A (default), B, C, D, E, and F — each corresponding to
a different cymbal.
TONE Section
Color Adjusts the frequency curve of the sound, measured as a
percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default:
71.5 %). Higher settings produce a brighter sound; lower settings
produce a more boxy sound.
