I know it sounds like alot, but that is the way I learned my method, and it seems to be working. Somewhat Also, a reverese snare, filtered in high pass also or a reverse cymbal hit on a amen gives, you a good lead in to a break! Just tryin to help! __ http://www.myspace.com/philthydubbish 19-08-2006 05:22 Yawn Sponsor Registration Date: 25-01-2005 Posts: 1,185 Helpfulness rating:  Sounds like an interesting method.

Yeah because I can never get the right sounding hi hat for my breaks. You will notice if you try my method it is really dark sounding which is totally my style. If you need anymore help, I am all about helping you out mang. __ http://www.myspace.com/philthydubbish 19-08-2006 17:51 drumnbass.be forum » Production » Production questions & answers » Cymbals and Hihats in homemade Breakbeat
