About this sample

This short pluck features a C minor chord combining sawtooth and 25% duty cycle square waves for a rich yet punchy texture. Each note is shaped by a fast exponential amplitude decay and a resonant low-pass filter sweep from a 600 Hz cutoff, blending raw and filtered signals to create a sharp pluck effect. A brief burst of high-passed noise adds a percussive transient click, while subtle stereo panning spreads chord tones for width. The sound is warmed with tanh saturation and normalized for consistent level over its 0.6-second duration.

It suits tech house and similar electronic genres around mid-tempos, adding rhythmic melodic interest without clutter. Layer it with sustained pads or drums, and consider gentle EQ to avoid masking vocals or bass. Its quick decay and harmonic richness work well as a rhythmic accent or melodic stab in mixes requiring tight, clean pluck sounds.
