Hi people.
I've been trying to write some 2step tunes and I want to recreate those classic snappy garage snares. I assume they are snares that have been pitch shifted upwards but none of the snare samples I have pitch shifted sound like I want them to.
Obvious example of what I mean would be:

Any ideas etc would be gratefully received.
Alex.

Find a crispy snare, and adjust the envelope to shorten it. Maybe layer with a clap, who's also been adsr'ed to be quite short.

. pitch a snare up
.use a really short envelope
.jsut use a rimshot if you cba
.or just use all three
.or you could ignore all of the above and do something totally different

You make 1-Step or 1/4 step?
0.5 + 0.5 = 1
0.5 x 2 = 0.25
Damn, all these genres confuse me.
