Sorry , Within our coveted circle of WORKING producers and engineers... If you cant spot trademark sounds within the industry.. then you might want to spend some time doing something else.

its real simple. you can definately do more, but this is the easiest way to add bounce with your hihats with very very little work. here it goes:
alternate hihat velocities on a 1/16th hihat pattern. i.e. X x X x X etc.
here is how i do it:
i will use note repeat to create 1/16th pattern on track A. then i copy that to track B. then i go to grid edit on track A and delete all the even hits. then i go into track B and delete all the odd hits. now if you play both tracks together it sounds like a regular 1/16th note repeat pattern. now lower the velocity of the entire track B so track B velocity is like half of track A i.e. track A-110% & track B-30% (usually i mess with the exact values until it sounds nice). so there is a relationship between track A and B of LOUD and QUIET
the idea is to get a LOUD QUIET LOUD QUIET pattern going to give the track bounce. louder hits on the downbeat. accenting the beat like that gives it a push pull bounce feeling, even on the most simple pattern
ya know! sorry for **** explanation, probably easier to show in video.
Once you get that down, you can instead of using note repeat, freestyle it using velocity in 16 levels. alternating the velocities gives push pull feeling. you dont just have to have exact values, you can add more variation, or you can even use differant hihat tones. etc.
now i dont even use note repeat. i just tap out without quantize so that i can make it groove how i like, then i add to it by doing the copy thing and deleteing alternating hits and adjust the velocity of each track. sometimes ill just put on 16 levels velocity and just do the alternating all in one track
you can accomplish similar results by using shakers too. lay down straight 1/16th hihat pattern with normal hihat. then go in with a shaker but dont do same pattern, do it 1/8th on all the downbeats. experiment!
