Playing Methods

Overview

Bell Shot

This playing method involves striking the bell. When played
as shown in the figure, the “rim-side” sound of the connected
input is triggered.

fig.Play-Bell

* Strike the bell somewhat strongly with the shoulder of the stick.

Choking (pinching) the cymbal’s edge with the hand
immediately after hitting the cymbal makes the sound stop.
Choke the location of the edge sensor shown in the figure. If
you choke an area where there is no sensor, the sound does
not stop.

fig.Play-Choke.e

fig.Play-CYPosi

With certain ride sounds, playing position will change the
nuance of the sound.

* Only TRIGGER INPUT 9 RIDE corresponds to the positional

sensing.

* Select an instrument from the Drum Instrument List (p. 88)

with “*P” appended to the name.

Open/Closed

The hi-hat tone changes smoothly and continuously from
open to closed in response to how far the pedal is pressed.
You can also play the foot closed sound (playing the hi-hat
with the pedal completely pressed down) and foot splash
sound (playing the hi-hat with the pedal fully pressed and
then instantly opening it).

Pressure (VH-12 Only)

When you strike the hi-hat while pressing on the pedal with
the hi-hat closed, you can then change the closed tone in
response to the pressure you place on the pedal.

Bow Shot

This playing method involves striking the middle area of the
top hi-hat. It corresponds to the sound of the “head-side” of
the connected trigger input.

fig.Play-VHBow

Edge Shot

This playing method involves striking the edge of the top hi-
hat with the shoulder of the stick. When played as shown in
the figure, the “rim-side” sound of the connected trigger input
is triggered.

fig.Play-VHEdge.e

* Do not strike the bottom hi-hat or the underside of the top hi-

hat.
