The third release of the “Groove Butter” series, The Closed Hats features 100 different closed Hi-hat presets made from 2.450 carefully recorded and processed one shot samples. The Hats are playable over four octaves and all presets are velocity sensitive and tuned.

We have recorded a lot of different drum machines in the past and we have now selected some of the rare ones and run them through our saturation, compressing, cleaning process and built a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun with, by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying beat making experience for musicans and listeners. There are some totally clean and classic sounding closed Hihats and some which we have barely overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results, to fill the toolbox for different music genres.

Add some extra drama by using the pitchbend in combination with some of the useful effects, in a handy and intuitive GUI design. Use the reverb, delay and flanger section to add some width and epicness. You can go real crazy if you want to. In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and hi-pass filters.

On the left side of the instrument you got a few knobs to build up the total shape and mood of the hi-hat sound by using tune, amplitude and pitch envelopes, a section to manage the speed of the sample and also a very useful transient shaper to add some extra attack and punch to the drums.
