cymbal malleting

[Mia]

Here's a short sample of what I mean (minus the guitars and such): http://members.cox.net/honeygardenand/cymbalmalleting.mp3 (10 seconds, 82kb)

I don't have any actual physical cymbals handy. I was wondering about how I might go about creating/using this sound in a project I'm working on. A good, long malleted cymbal sample would do the trick. Alternately if there's any drum synth that can create a similar sound, that'd work.

Thanks.

You know what, there's a simple solution to this! Set loop points on a soft cymbal hit, then set the loop mode to "ping-pong."

Or take a regular cymbal hit, adjust the volume attack (so the "ting!" part goes away), add reverb to hide any clicks, then play it like an actual drummer would - with varying velocity.
