## Questions & Answers

**Q: I got my HH65 today for my DD65 I push down on the peddle the tone responds as OPEN when the peddle has no pressure the tone is closed it's backwards**
A: It isn't backward.  When you press on the hi-hat pedal, the hi-hat cymbal OPENS.  When you release the hi-hat pedal, the hi-hat cymbal CLOSES.  I don't know if this unit supports velocity, but if it does, a soft release will close the cymbal gently, while  quick release will close it quickly.  If you reverse the functionality, you will be lost if you sit at a real kit.

**Q: Does it need to be screwed in? Would that be fine to place it on carpet?**
A: It comes with some very large screws with pointed tips, that have a spring around it.  I find that if I simply let the pointy end of the screw protrude through the bottom of the HH65 base, it stays on carpet and doesn't move around.   If you wanted to, you could screw it into  a piece of plywood for greater stability.  I did that with the kick drum tower and controller, without any velcro on the bottom of the plywood, and it works great -- doesn't move around at all when on carpet.  But i had to use my own wood screws as the ones it came with (the same ones as the HH65 comes with) wouldn't engage with the wood very deeply.   Hope that helps.  Bottom line, you should be OK on carpet with the screws at the front of the controller biting gently into the carpet you are on.   At least, that has been my experience.  Good luck -- and don't lose the cable the HH65 comes with!!! The music stores have no clue about the right kind of cable, and will give you all kinds of bum steers (in a well-meaning way) about what kind of cable you need.   Yamaha wants $35.00 for a replacement cable.  I have ordered one for $8.00 from ebay but I'm taking a chance on whether it will actually work.  I intend to post the model number of the cable when it comes, if it works.  I know it has to be a stereo cable, at a minimum.  A keyboard pedal worked as a stop gap measure until I find the right replacement cable at a reasonable price.

**Q: How does this compare to the Roland FD-9?**
A: Not sure. I used this Pedal for a high end toy drum set and it's far better than the pedal that came with it. I can't compare it to my roland kit since I use a standard pearl double kick peddle with it.

**Q: Will it work with Simmons drum**
A: It uses a 1/4" Jack, so as long as the Simmons does I would say yes. It's pretty universal.
