Basic Operation Playing Drum Pads Snares & Toms If using a three zone pad such as the XP100SD shown below, you will be able to produce three distinct sounds (i.e., head, open rim, closed rim) depending on where you hit it, much the same as if you were playing an acoustic snare. Closed rim shot (rim 2) Hi-Hats If using a two zone pad such as the RHH135 shown below, you will be able to play it in the same way as an acoustic hi-hat cymbal. Open rim shot (rim 1) Head shot Head shot Hitting the main surface of the pad produces a head shot sound. Edge shot Bow shot Open/close In addition to the foot-close sound obtained by pressing the Hi-Hat Controller pedal, you can press the controller down even more firmly in the closed condition to produce a tighter closed hi-hat sound. Bow shot Hitting the main surface of the pad (i.e., the bow section located between the cup and edge) produces a bow shot sound. Open rim shot Hitting the open-rim zone produces an open rim-shot sound. Closed rim shot (Cross sticking) Hitting the closed-rim zone produces a closed rim-shot sound. Edge shot Hitting the outside edge of the pad produces an edge shot sound. Hi-hat splash Pressing the hi-hat controller pedal and then immediately releasing it produces a hi-hat splash sound.
