My last PS ;): It also can't harm to group some sounds to a sound sample of silence. Hit the cymbal and emulate muting the cymbal by a hand, by grouping it to silence, IOW play silence to stop the cymbal's sound. Theoretically this could be done by giving the cymbal just sustain, but no release, but if so, nobody would be able to play the cymbal in a natural way, neither by a keyboard and absolutely not by drum pads. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
