About this sample

A dry, papery mono clap lands on beats 2 and 4, with each hit sitting 24 ms behind the beat; a quiet ghost hit falls on beat 3, 18 ms late. Each 0.42-second hit layers four pink-noise bursts, spaced 12–45 ms apart and fading in gain. The bursts are band-passed from 700 to 8,500 Hz, then the combined hit is high-passed at 320 Hz. A gated room reverb adds a short tail, followed by mild saturation. The loop runs at 90 BPM for two bars, or 5.33 seconds.

Use it for boom bap and other laid-back hip-hop grooves, or try it around 90 BPM as a backbeat layer. Pair it with a kick and snare, or adjust the timing and gain to sit behind a tighter main clap. Its mono, bright midrange can build up against snare or percussion, so check for harshness and leave room around the transient.
