1.3 Components
WaveShell technology enables us to split Waves processors into smaller plug-ins, which we call components. Having a choice of components for a particular processor gives you the flexibility to choose the configuration best suited to your material.
The Waves JJP Cymbals & Percussion has two components:
•JJP Cym & Perc m>s – Mono in to Stereo out component
•JJP Cym & Perc  Stereo – Stereo in to Stereo out component
Please Note:  In order to maximize performance while optimizing the correct processing for different applications, we split the drums into two separate plug-ins:
•JJP Drums for kicks, snares, and toms
•JJP Cymbals & Percussion, for hi-hats, overheads, room, and loops
1.4 A Few Words from JJP
"There’s really so much you can do with cymbals and percussion. You can use some lo-fi effect to fatten up shakers. You can take out the mid-range on tambourines to make them sound brighter, or you can add some dirt and distortion to make them sound grittier. You can boost the high end to enhance the shimmer of the cymbals or compress them hard, to bring out other aspects of their sound. The JJP Cymbals & Percussion plug-in gives you instant access to all the different colors I like to use, so you can just fire it up, find what you need, and stay creative."
Chapter 2 – Quickstart Guide
•Insert the JJP Cymbals & Percussion plug-in on the track you wish to process.
•Choose the cymbal or percussion Type, according to your source:  HH (Hi-hats), OH (Overheads), Room, Tambourine, Shaker, or Loops.
•Adjust the Sensitivity control until you achieve proper (yellow) levels, as indicated by the Sensitivity LED.
•Adjust the various Main Section controls located below the Sensitivity knob to shape your sound.
•Use the Center Section faders to adjust the sonic color.
•If the Clip LED lights up repeatedly or stays lit, lower the Output level fader accordingly.
JJP has optimized the default settings for each Type. These settings may or may not require additional adjustment once optimal Sensitivity has been achieved.
