Dear Anyone.

When, especially in slow Country and Western tracks, they keep the rhythm by tapping the edge of the snaredrum with the stick so you get a click sound, what's that sound called? And do you know where there's a wave file of it?

Y'see, I thought that sound was called a Rimshot. But every .WAV file I've found called Rimshot is that bad drum roll you get after a stupid comedian makes a joke, just so you know it IS a joke. Two taps on the snaredrum and a cymbal crash. That's the sound I DON'T need. The one I'm after is just someone tapping the edge of a snare drum so it clicks. Got several drum programs but none of them have that sound in for some reason.

If someone knows a drum VST that DEFINITELY has that sound in it, I'll have that instead but a single .WAV of the sound would do wonderfully.

Yours hopefully

It's called sidestick. Do a search in the Drum and Percussion forum. I think someone put up a lot of wav files for free. Maybe he's got a sample for you. It's been a while back, so you might have to dig through pages.

EZDrummer has it.
 
Thanks Chili - and I made a find that might be worth a sticky.

Dear Chili.

Thanks for the heads-up on what that sound was called - sidestick - never heard that word before!

So I did a Google for it and came across a WONDERFUL looking site I'd also never heard of before! It's

http://www.freesound.org

and it's FULL of all sorts of .WAVs that could come in useful to people. Yeah, a lot of them are one-shots so they'd sound a bit stupid spread out over a whole keyboard, but they might come in useful. The drum sounds sure have for me.

This ISN'T spam, I'm not trying to promote a site that I have anything to do with, I have nothing to do with this site, I just found it and thought it might be useful.

Yours respectfully

Good deal, I'll have to check it out. Telling everybody about a site that you are not connected with is not spam, it's just spreading the good word. I do appreciate your concerns and avoiding spam.
