Well, pads are those long, chorused notes that have a slow attack rate. They're usually in the background, but when they're in the foreground, they can emulate something like a swell of stringed instruments. As far as listening for them, just play a Proem song, or two. Those things you're hearing that aren't beats or sound effects? Those be pads. derek --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
