Hand claps are very easy to do with a Korg MS-20 thanks to its lovely resonant high pass filter.
Here is an example of a basic hand clap using white noise from VCO-1 waveform but also from the patch bay into the ESP. From the ESP the noise is patched into external signal input to distort the sound a bit.
Noise is also taken out from the ESP into the S&H input. The S&H is triggered by a narrow rectangle wave and sent to the low pass filter to create the clapping sound.
Spend some more time tweaking and you can make a pretty convincing analog hand clap sound.
