So let's take a look at how we can synthesize a symbol- or hi-hat-type sound.…So I am going to load in the empty patch.…So I am going to go Load Setting and then Desktop/Exercise Files/Ultrabeat. Then…in here the Preset folder I am going to select Ultrabeat_EMPTY.…So we will build the cymbal sound on C1, and if you think about a cymbal it's…a pretty noisy type of sound, but it's different than obviously a snare-drum…kind of noise.…
So the best way to re-create a cymbal sound is using resonant noise.…So I am going to turn on the noise generator.…I just turned off oscillator 2. And I am going to set this to High Pass.…Okay, so you hear we have noise. I'm going to adjust the cutoff to bring back in from the low…frequencies, and then I am going to crank up the resonance here.…So let's just crank this way up, and then I will adjust the cutoff a bit.…Okay, so we have a nice resonant noise sound here.…
So the next thing I am going to want to do is just play around with the amp envelope.…So that's Env 4, which is attached to the voice volume, because that…
