Element Description
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 ↑10.1.5, Pitch Range,
Tuning, and MIDI Notes.
Decay Adjusts the duration of the sound, measured as a percentage. A
short decay produces a closed hat; a long decay gives an open hi-
hat or cymbal. Available values range from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default:
65.0 %).
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).
TONE Section
Color Adjusts the center frequency of the filter applied to the sound,
measured in hertz. Available values range from 932.3 Hz to
16.7 kHz (default: 7.4 kHz). The default position gives a standard
metallic analog hi-hat. Colored down, the sound is much more
melodic and in the midrange, good for percussion or effects. In a
way this parameter is a more effective tuning control than the Tune
parameter itself. Note that the Color parameter also follows
keyboard tracking (i.e. the key/pad you play) along with the Tune
parameter, limited to the range of the parameter.
Saturate Adjusts the amount of analog-style saturation applied to the sound
for increased thickness, measured as a percentage. Available values
range from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default: 19.0 %).
Noise Adusts the mix between an oscillator bank and white noise as the
signal source, measured as a percentage. Available values range
from 0.0 % (oscillator bank only) to 100.0 % (white noise only).
The default value is 10.0 %.
