Hi everybody.
I just received a cast precision hi-hat in the mail. I plugged it in using a HOSA XLR to TRS cable, calibrated it, set threshold, input levels, did a factory reset, and I'm still having problems.
The hi hat pad plays just fine with a stick, but the only sound I can get from the clutch is the same sound I get from the stick. It seems if I hit the pad lightly, I get a closed sound and if I hit it hard, I either get a washy or an open sound (not sure which). The sound does not change whether the clutch is touching the pad, or a mile away.
However, with some world percussion sounds, it DOES seem to work. With the tabla, guiro, and some other sounds, the pitch-bending function seems to work fine.
I just can't get the clutch to effect a change between open/closed sounds with hi-hat patches.
Any suggestions?
