 Hi-hats
Strike different sections of the pad in the same way you would play an acoustic hi-hat cymbal.
Bow shots
Edge shots
Open/Close
• You can produce an open hi-hat sound by striking the hi-hat pad with the hi-hat pedal fully open.
• You can produce a closed hi-hat sound by striking the hi-hat pad with the hi-hat pedal fully pressed.
• Different hi-hat sound is produced depending on the how much the pedal is opened or pressed.
Foot-close sounds
You can press down the hi-hat pedal to create a foot-close sound without having to strike the hi-hat pad.
Hi-hat splash sounds
Pressing down the hi-hat pedal and then immediately releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound.
*1 The front side of the pad is indicated by the Yamaha logo.
Striking the main surface of the hi-hat pad (i.e., the bow section located between the
cup and edge) produces a bow shot sound.
Striking the front side on the outer edge of the hi-hat pad produces an edge shot
sound.
*1
Make sure that the drumstick is parallel to the pad surface when striking the pad. The
edge sensor switch on the cymbal pad may not react properly when the pad is struck
completely from the side.
