HiHat

This is a MIDI-controllable analog hi-hat module. You can also control the hi-hat via GATE & CV signals.

You need to feed noise into the module to make it work. You may use our Noise module.

Features

  • Open & Close Hi-Hat
  • Accent Control
  • Full MIDI Control
  • Feed Custom Noise Sources
  • Get the HiHat Envelope as CV

Inputs

  1. MIDI MIDI input to control the hi-hat generator
  2. NOISE External noise (audio) input
  3. GATE Gate input for triggering the hi-hat
  4. ACCENT CV input for accent control
  5. OPEN Gate input for open hi-hat

Outputs

  1. MIDI MIDI THRU (passthrough) output
  2. AUDIO Hi-hat audio output
  3. AUDIO Hi-hat audio output
  4. CV Envelope CV of the hi-hat
  5. CV Envelope CV of the hi-hat

Controls

  • CUTOFF: Controls the cutoff frequency of the hi-hat. Left is higher frequency, right is lower.
  • DECAY: Increases the decay of the hi-hat.

MIDI

  • Use any note up to (and including) Middle C (C4) to trigger the hi-hat
  • Any note above Middle C will open the hi-hat
  • The velocity of the note will affect the DECAY control
