8.3.10 Snare – Breaker
The Breaker snare is an acoustic high pitched snare drum that cuts through perfectly into mix-
es containing heavy bass. The adjustment of the wires spectrum provides a great range of
snares. It also works very well with the Rasper Kick.
The parameters described below are presented as they appear in the Control area (Ar-
range view). The same parameters are available in the Plug-in panel within the Plug-in
Strip (Mix view). See ↑12.4, The Plug-in Strip for more information on this.
