Custom sample overrides

At the moment, per-beatmap and per-skin sample-sets can be implemented.

The following section describes the name of files that can be replaced.

Normal (loud) sampleset

• normal-hitnormal
• normal-hitwhistle
• normal-hitfinish
• normal-hitclap

The following three samples are additive, meaning when you hit a whistle you will get a hitnormal + hitwhistle.

• normal-sliderslide (loops)
• normal-sliderwhistle (loops)
• normal-slidertick

Soft sampleset

• soft-hitnormal
• soft-hitwhistle
• soft-hitfinish
• soft-hitclap

The following three samples are additive, meaning when you hit a whistle you will get a hitnormal + hitwhistle.

• soft-sliderslide (loops)
• soft-sliderwhistle (loops)
• soft-slidertick

Drum sampleset

• drum-hitnormal
• drum-hitwhistle
• drum-hitfinish
• drum-hitclap

The following three samples are additive, meaning when you hit a whistle you will get a hitnormal + hitwhistle.

• drum-sliderslide (loops)
• drum-sliderwhistle (loops)
• drum-slidertick

Universal samples

• spinnerspin (this sound is pitch-shifted as the spinner increases. It goes from ~500hz to 80000hz where the original sample is 44100hz)
• spinnerbonus (ding)
• spinnerbonus-max (Lazer only)

Notes

• Internally .wav file formats are used for all hitsounds due to the inherent lower latency for initial triggering and loop compatibility.

  • You can use .wav or .mp3, but heed the following: .wav files are best in all cases, this is because .mp3 may sometimes loop incorrectly and noticeably have a short (0–20ms) gap between the loops.
• If you want to replace both normal and soft samples in a skin, simply do not include the normal- or soft- prefixes.
• Place these files in your beatmap or skin's directory.
  You then have to reload the beatmap or skin to see the effect!
