Performance techniques
Choking (pinching) the cymbal’s edge with the hand
immediately after hitting the cymbal will mute or choke the
sound, just like with a real cymbal. The Choke function only
works when you grasp in the area (where the edge sensor is) as
shown in the figure. If you do otherwise, it will not work.
Open/Closed
The hi-hat sound will change smoothly between open and
closed depending on pressure applied to the hi-hat control
pedal or a hi-hat stand (when using the optional VH-11).
Foot closed and foot splash sounds are possible.
Bow Shot
When playing the middle area of the hi-hat pad, the sound
assigned to the “head” will be heard.
Edge Shot
When playing the edge of the hi-hat pad with the shoulder of
the stick (as shown in the figure), the sound assigned to the
“rim” will be heard.
* Do not strike the side of the hi-had pad.
