Hi-Hat Controller Sensor on Donner DED-500P
Setup — Hi-Hat Controller Sensor on Donner DED-500P
Use with the kit's pedal controllerThe Hi-Hat Controller Sensor works on the Donner DED-500P as a continuous hi-hat driven by the kit's own pedal controller: open, half-open and closed positions.
Continuous
Open
Closed
Wiring: 1× TRS → HI-HAT lead on the DB25 harness; keep the kit's own control pedal — the hi-hat signal is DB25-only, with no 1/4" jack for the Lemon controller
The DED-500P reads full pedal position from its own control pedal — a three-point calibration (Open > HOpen > NClose) captures the range (pp.19–20), and a Type: Stand/Pedal setting matches the controller hardware. The hi-hat signal runs over the DB25 harness only (p.03, p.05); there is no 1/4" jack for the Lemon controller. Same as DED-500.
Cable routing
- Connect the Lemon hi-hat pad to the HI-HAT lead on the module's DB25 signal-connection harness.
- Keep the kit's own control pedal in place — it provides the pedal position; the DB25-only hi-hat wiring has no 1/4" jack for the Lemon controller.
Module settings
- Upon the setting interface, select TRIG and press [ENTER] to enter the trigger interface, then use the [◀]/[▶] buttons to select the Hi-Hat pad.
- Adjust Sensibility, Threshold, and Rim Gain; adjust Pedal HH Sens for closed hi-hat and foot-splash response.
- UTIL > HH sets the pedal type (Type: Stand/Pedal) and captures the three-point pedal calibration — press the pedal to Open, HOpen, and NClose in turn (p.18; pp.19–20).
