How to make an open hihat sound cut off when a closed hihat is triggered?

Baddox	Date: August 1, 2005 @ 1:37 AM This is a primary requirement for realistic drum machine sounds. The open hihat sound should of course "choke" and cut out when the closed hihat is hit. Is there a way to implement this effect in FL 5? My closed and open hihat samples don't match exactly but this effect could still help.

orgasmotron	Date: August 1, 2005 @ 1:11 PM in the sampler box click the misc tag. you should see it say "cut" and "cut by". now this is the important bit. make sure your closed hihat and open hihat have the same number in both those boxes. any random number that hasn't been used yet. i usually use 6. (or 5 if i'm feeling odd). now when you play a closed hihat sample it will stop the open hihat sample from playing. tada.
