This is not a joke. Is there no choke cymbals in Realidrums? No way to artificially stop the tail of a cymbal sound either?
That's an interesting idea. If you do try that, please let me know how it sounds.Just thinking outloud here: it might be possible to fake pretty good chokes by taking a few snippets of audio along different times in the cymbal's decay, quickly fading each one out and fading in a later one, and applying an envelope to fade out the whole combined blob of sound.
Could also do it with smaller grains, but I'd just try 5-6 chunks of around 0.2 seconds first. It might be that simple. If the first chunk is from earlier in the file than the moment when the cymbal's being choked, it should do a decent job of making the sound get momentarily a bit brighter, which a real choke seems to, from looking at their spectrograms.
I got a few cymbals with chokes sampled, I could try this sometime and see how close it comes to the real thing.
Tried it, seems pretty decent. Attaching the results.That's an interesting idea. If you do try that, please let me know how it sounds.
