Stacey:
That will depend on the samples you have available.  I usually use a real 
tamborine for that sort of thing.  As far as the high hats, if you want to do 
that sort of thing, try using a sample that has several notes across the 
keyboard.

  Hello, gang.  This is more of a musician/ Sonar question rather than an 
accessibility issue.  How would you guys go about trying to play a double 
handed high hat rythym along with a snare and bass drum, such as in some 80's 
pop/rock.  I am sure the first step is to slow the temp down and get the 
quantize right, but I was thinking for authienticity it might be better to 
enter it with two fingers on the keyboard.  This would involve a drum map I 
suppose.    Or would you simply trial and error in sound on sound mode one hit 
at a time until a decent beat is done for copying and pasting?
  Along these same rythym lines, how can you create a shaking tambourine for 
this type of music?  I'm not talking about the tambourine that hits on the 
beat, but the ones that sounds like it is being shaked/rattled before it hits 
on the beat.  Is this possible?
  Thanks for any suggestions.  I've been on a long analog break.  It's going to 
feel good to get back into my amateur-MIDI mode!   SLB
