Playing the Pads

Similar to an acoustic drum kit, the digital drum responds differently to 
various playing techniques and dynamics. All the pads are velocity 
sensitive, and some voices change timbre depending on the striking force.

Hi-Hat

The Hi-Hat sounds varies from open to closed in response to how far the 
Hi-hat pedal is pressed:

Open Hi-Hat:    

Strike the Hi-Hat pad without pressing the pedal.

Closed Hi-Hat:

 Strike the Hi-Hat pad with the pedal pressed 

                          completely down.

Pedal Close:    

Press the pedal completely down without striking the 

                          pad.

Splash:  

         Press the pedal completely down and release it 

                          immediately.
