Playing Techniques

If using a TP70S Snare Pad, you will be able to produce

three distinct sounds (i.e., head, open rim, and closed rim)

depending on where you strike it, much the same as if you

were playing an acoustic snare.

 Head shots

Hitting the main surface of the pad produces a head shot

sound.

 Open rim shots

Hitting the open-rim zone produces an open rim-shot

sound.

 Closed rim shots (cross sticking)

Hitting the closed-rim zone produces a closed rim-shot

sound.

 Open/close

• You can produce an open hi-hat sound by striking the

hi-hat pad with the hi-hat controller’s pedal not

depressed.

• You can produce a closed hi-hat sound by striking the

hi-hat pad with the hi-hat controller’s pedal depressed.

• If using an HH65 Hi-hat Controller, you can operate

the pedal to recreate the sound of a closing hi-hat.

 Foot closed

You can depress the hi-hat controller’s pedal to create a

foot-close sound without having to strike the hi-hat pad.

 Hi-hat splash

Depressing the hi-hat controller’s pedal and then imme-

diately releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound.
