Clap loop, 128 bpm, 4 bars, techno claps with delay throws

About this sample

A crisp, gritty mono clap pattern runs for four bars at 128 BPM, with hits on beats two and four and extra offbeat hits in bars two and four. Each clap stacks four short bursts of white noise, band-passed from 900 to 10,500 Hz and spaced 12–43 ms apart for a rattling slap. A short gate shapes the 0.32-second hit; a 500 Hz high-pass, 8-bit bit reduction, and saturation add bite. Dotted-eighth delay at 24% feedback supplies restrained throws, then compression and a -3 dB peak finish the loop.

Use it in techno or other dance tracks around 128 BPM, either as a backbeat or a layer beneath a fuller clap or snare. The mono image keeps it centered, while the bright bursts and repeats can crowd hats, so check the upper mids and trim or filter the delay if the groove gets busy.
