Diginoiz has updated Hattricks, the hi-hats plugin, to v1.5. The update is free for all existing users. New customers can get it with a 50% discount until the end of July 2023.
Hattricks is a simple but innovative tool dedicated to efficient playing and programming quick rhythms typical for trap, r&b, and hip hop hi-hats. It is a sampler and a sequencer with rhythm divisions assigned to keys.
In practice, you upload or choose from an attached library a sample of a hi-hat and by pressing keys, you trigger short looped sequences of straight notes and triplets, which are, due to their speed, impossible to play by hand and laborious to click in with a mouse. Chosen hits and sequences can then be pitched up and down to create characteristic tuned hi-hat rolls.
Hattricks also has a section with articulations dedicated for creating snare fills and you can use it with any type of samples you want to create fast rhythmic and melodic sequences.
New features and improvements:
- Native Apple Silicon M1 support.
- MIDI record drag and drop (rhythmic patterns created with Hattricks can be exported out of Hattricks in form of MIDI files without any routing and used to launch other plugins).
