hihat again......

2006-09-26 by dronsb

Hi folks,

I�ve played around with my new set nof for a couple of days- only the
hihat is still p...... me off! I cannot understand why Yamaha has
released such an unsatisfying product! There�s almost no continuity in
the pedal, I might as well use a switch! This in relation to how good
the rest of the kit is makes it even worse!
I`ve just talked to a guy at drumtec (my german dealer) and he`s told
me that the RHH130 controler itself has 7 resistors inside (instead of
the normal Yamaha hh-controler that have only 3) which should at least
give the drummer a sufficient sensibility for playing a slightly
opened HH? So where�s the problem? Yamaha claims that the DTXpress3
has a continuous HH- looks like the brain is not understanding what
the controler is telling him- or am I wrong in this?
The guy at drumtec told me that it`s also the same sh.. with the
DTXtreme, so no solution in getting that brain either.
Couldn`t this be solved with a sort of electronic interface? Some
device that translates the input from the RHH130 controler to the
DTXpress brain? I�d really like to hear comments from the electronic
technicians in here!
Thanks already in advance,
Wolfgang
