Handwaving were ne'er so lyrical. Unfortunately we are still no nearer
to a clue as to what Slam is...

Do you know what a slammed door sounds like?

Yes?

Well how would _you_ describe the type of sound it makes? Or would you
just find it easier to say the sound has some slam about it?

Or if you wanted to be pedantic how about, fast attack, no decay, no
sustain and a sharp release?

Well, if I were listening to recordings of doors being slammed, then
slam is what I would want to hear.

My listening is much more to do with music - without slamming doors.

So I was correct when I said "if you want to be pedantic"

You might have been if that was what you said - but it wasn't. What
you said was "Or if you wanted to be pedantic how about, fast attack,
no decay, no sustain and a sharp release?"

Rather wide of the mark, you must agree. If you feel the inclination
to misquote yourself, at least have the smarts not to include the
correct version in the post.
