Original Message Date: 13-Nov-01 @ 09:15 PM - Really Looooonnnng Crashes???
I have been hearing alot of really, really long crashes in some progressive house tunes and am wondering if anybody has any idea how to create them.
I have spent hours, well, OK about an hour or so :=), trying to make the sound using time-stretching, compression, delays, synthesis, etc... But I can not come up with a really long clean crash!!!
Any ideas???
Cheers!
Steve.

I've uploaded a sample of 'Reservation' by 'Bretheren', which has an example of a long reversed-crash crescendo into a crash with a long decay. Influx, when you say that 3-4 secs doesn't seem that long for a crash, do you have any samples of a long crash? That would solve this outright. All of my crashes have a fairly quick decay of about 2 secs.
Cheers!

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

The Korg Trinity has got a looping crash cymbal in it. You need something like that.
You have to edit a new program and select the crash sample rather than using it from an existing drumkit.
But once you've done that it goes on forever.

its more of a splash cymbal, no? but yeah..I think the tail is looped, and then for the "decay" you just throw an evelope on there.
neat sounding song btw

Sahsa "rabitweed" has some realy long crashes that sustain for over 16 bars then fade out. O used the cst reverd and just used the decay to full and it worked. It sustains nicly. Then use volume to fade it.

or loads of little crashes with a slow attack,then fade them out slowly(like a real drumer would play it) or do that reverse reverb thing in mono a few times
