Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals when used with the Donner DED-200X.

Setup — 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals on Donner DED-200X

Use as switch hi-hat

The 12" 2-Piece Electronic Hi-Hat Cymbals works on the Donner DED-200X as a switch hi-hat: open/closed only.

Continuous Open Closed

Wiring: Hi-hat leads on the signal-connection cable, whose plug screws into the module's parallel-port connector → hi-hat pad + hi-hat controller

Basic open/closed pedal switching. No continuous control. Same as DED-200.

Module settings

  1. In DRUM KIT mode, press MENU, use the encoder or UP/DOWN to select SENSITIVITY, then press ENTER.
  2. Press UP/DOWN to pick a parameter, tap the hi-hat pad to select it (shown as HH), and turn the encoder to set the value.
  3. Set SEN (drum sensitivity, 01-06) so your normal stroke registers at full volume.
  4. Set THREH. (trigger threshold, 01-32) so light knocks don't trigger the pad.
  5. Raise XTALK (crosstalk threshold, 01-32) if a neighbouring pad false-triggers this one, and RETR. (repeat trigger, 01-32) if you get double triggers.
  6. Set VOL (volume, 00-127) to balance the pad against the rest of the kit.
  7. Press SAVE to store the settings.

Tips

  1. The hi-hat pedal is switch-type only — open and closed states.
  2. No continuous pedal control or half-open articulations.
