Hi-Hat Controller Sensor on Alesis Strike Pro

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the Hi-Hat Controller Sensor when used with the Alesis Strike Pro.

Yes — the Hi-Hat Controller Sensor works as a full hi-hat on the Alesis Strike Pro: variable pedal position.

Continuous Open Closed

Wiring: 1× TRS (pad) → HI HAT input + 1× TRS (pedal) → HH CONTROL input

Variable hi-hat pedal control is supported — the Lemon pedal drives open, closed, half-open, and splash articulations.

Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the hi-hat pad to the HI HAT input on the rear panel.
Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the hi-hat pedal controller to the HH CONTROL input on the rear panel.

Press Edit > Triggers (button 19) to enter Trigger Mode.
Select the Hi-Hat Bow or Hi-Hat Edge zone (Note Chase on and strike the pad, or cursor to the Trig field).
Press the F1/F2 Pedal button to open the pedal settings.
Set Foot Sens (chick/stomp dynamic range), Splash (how easily a splash triggers), and Offset (the chick/stomp trigger point).
Choose a Pedal Curve — Log 1-4 for more closed/semi-open bias, Exp 1-4 for more open bias.

Pedal Curve options: Log 1–4 biases toward closed/semi-open sounds, Exp 1–4 biases toward open sounds.
Velocity Curve (Linear by default) controls volume response.
Test the full pedal sweep to confirm smooth open-to-closed transitions.
Calibrate the hi-hat pedal range (open/closed end-points) in the module settings so variable response tracks the full pedal travel.
