Pedal will close the hihat - but makes the closed sound every time, no matter how gently I push it! Also, it's impossible to create the 'splash' sound, no matter what I try.
Hope you can help. Thanks.

Hello Kevin,
You may need to replace your pedal then. Contact Alesis support to assist you with your pedal. Log onto http://www.alesis.com/support to contact Alesis support.Comment -

Thanks for the quick reply Chris D. I've been testing the pedal today and I can now get the splash sound however, I still can't close the hihat silently - I still always get the sound, even though it's not wanted. Is it something I'm doing wrong, or could it still be a faulty pedal?

Hello Kevin,
Thanks for the post. I'd like to help! Lets make sure you're familiar with how this pedal is supposed to work. The hi-hat sound will vary based on the position of the hi-hat controller pedal:
• Open hi-hat: With your foot off of the pedal, hit the hi-hat pad.
• Closed hi-hat: With your foot pressing the pedal all the way down, hit the hi-hat pad.
• Pedal close: Press the hi-hat pedal all the way down without hitting the hi-hat pad.
• Splash: Quickly press the hi-hat pedal all the way down, and then release it immediately.
This drum module will play sounds of varying timbres depending on how hard you hit the pads. Try hitting the pads with different amounts of force to experiment with the different sounds produced by the module. -
