12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals on Alesis DM10 MKII

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals when used with the Alesis DM10 MKII.

Setup — 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals on Alesis DM10 MKII

Use as switch hi-hat

The 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals works on the Alesis DM10 MKII as a switch hi-hat: open/closed only.

Continuous Open Closed

Wiring: Hi-hat trigger → hi-hat pad + hi-hat pedal lead → hi-hat controller, both on the cable snake

The Lemon hi-hat controller uses the Roland VH/FD convention, not documented for continuous CV here — so with the Lemon controller, treat hi-hat as open/closed.
