Hi-hat Pedal Controller

Hi-hat Pedal Controller receives pedal tension from Hi-hat Pads to determine which modules should be played. Hi-hat Pedal Controller must be a submodule of a Hi-hat Pads module to receive pedal tension.

Spread determines the width of selection of submodules. Turn this down to only ever hear one submodule at a time. Turning it up introduces blending or crossfading between submodules. For recreations of an acoustic hihat, some amount of blend usually sounds more natural.

Audition disables pedal tension selection of submodules and bypasses spread. Enabling audition essentially turns Hihat Pedal Control into a Group, which is mainly useful for clicking through submodules at full volume while setting things up or getting oriented.

Like Hit Controller, Hi-hat Pedal Controller has a step control per submodule. A center point for pedal tension is overlaid on the steps. Use this as a reference point for where you cross over from open to closed sounds. If a step has a boundary within this midpoint, it acts as an anchor for adjustments elsewhere to keep open and closed sounds separately adjustable. There is nothing wrong with a step extending beyond this boundary; this might be a more logical workflow depending on your sound design approach and playing style.
