Stephen,

The raised edge is what I always considered the disadvantage of using 
a stereo cymbal for a hi hat, though, as you say, you can get around 
it. I remember having this discussion with Otacon28 (Sam) at least a 
year and a half ago when the Zenbals first came out. For a hi hat, I 
prefer either a single zone or a dual-zone w/bell.
