If you’re using the VH-11 V-hi-hat, execute the offset adjustment from the TD-9 after making connections.
This adjustment is required in order to correctly detect open, close, and pedal operations.
Fixing the cables
VH offset
adjustment
screw
OPEN
CLOSE
If the closed hi-hat sound is difficult to attain, rotate the VH offset
adjustment screw towards “CLOSE.”
If the open hi-hat sound is difficult to attain, rotate the screw
towards “OPEN.”
* If the sound cuts off when you strike the hi-hat forcefully, rotate the
VH Offset adjustment screw towards “OPEN.”
* Although the gap can be adjusted
to a clearance that makes playing
the hi-hat easier, setting too
narrow or wide a gap can cause
improper function of the unit and
prevent the hi-hat from sounding
as you intend. Setting the gap to
3 mm provides the most natural
feel when playing the VH-11.
* Continuous playing may cause dis-coloration of the pad, but this will not affect the Pad’s function.
* If the hi-hat clutch has been detached from the hi-hat, refer to “If the Clutch Was Apart from the Hi-Hat” in
the owner’s manual.
