RE: [DTXpress] Anyone using more than one Hi-Hat pad set-up with one controller?

2004-12-01 by rdamon@mckinney-usa.com

Steve,
 
I setup my last kit running the hihat triggers to two module, so that I
could have a three zone hihat that was controlled from one HH65 hihat pedal.
The three zones came from two on a PCY65S (bow/edge) and a the third on a
PCY10 (bell). Since both pads were mounted to the same cymbal arm, it
yeilded a three zone hihat. The HH65 was Y-split with a true stereo splitter
to module 1 and module 2 HHCTRL jacks. The PCY10 output was sent to Module
1/Input 1 and Module 2/Input 8. The PCY65S output was sent to Module 1/Input
8 and Module 2/Input 1. The reason for sending the outputs from each pad to
both modules was to take advantage of the "Specific Rejection" function in
the modules so that hitting one pad wouldn't trigger the other. 
 
There are alot of creative things that can be done when you have two
modules.

Just experimented and tried this out last night! I have two separate 
pads for my Hi-Hat set-up. Each going to separate DTX modules. My Hi-
Hat controller is slit with a stereo 'Y' cable to both modules. What 
a trip:)
I have one set to a higher pitch and the other to a lower pitch. The 
placements were tricky, but I have it situated where it works 
well...It's fun too:)

Steve
