9.4 UNIT – HCAL
On this page important adjustments for the hi-hat are made.
CALIB On this menu page you can calibrate the hihat, i.e. adjust it to your playing. Because of
the importance, we have dedicated an extra chapter to this subject. Please read the
detailed explanations starting on page 19.
RAW Depending on the hi-hat pad you connect, you may have to change the RAW setting to
ensure optimum performance. The RAW value can be set with the small recessed
screw (HH Cal) on the module’s back panel. The values below are merely indications
of what might work for you. Feel free to tweak the setting to adapt the response to your
playing style.
Yamaha: 850-900, Roland: 800-850, Alesis: 830-880, 2BOX: 600-650
LEVEL Here you can read the signal level of Zone 9 (pedaled hihat - the DATA button has no
function).
HTYP With this parameter you specify the hi-hat type you have connected.
DEF All popular hi-hat types and brands
2BOXHH 2BOX DrumIt Five Hi-hat
ALEHH Alesis Crimson hi-hat controller
POFF This parameter allows you to change the hi-hat’s calibration range: higher values
extend the range, while lower values narrow it down. Bear in mind that changing this
setting also affects the PFACT setting. We recommend editing this parameter only
once you are thoroughly familiar with the system.
PFACT Increase this value to raise the calibration threshold. This is useful for a consistent “foot
chick” (pedaled hi-hat) and “foot splash” (quick release of the pedal after a chick)
sound. We recommend taking your time to find the setting that you are most
comfortable with.
