you know how when you apply more pressure to the hi-hat pedal it kind of changes the sound / pitch ?
my Meinl HCS hats sound pretty good, but the warp (as i call it) is unbearable as there is a very narrow range of slightly opening the hat where i get a good chick, but it´s hard to hold it there.
is there any way to stop that ? when my adrenaline is high, i get excited and just about every hit sounds different because of my bouncing foot.
i have considered muffling the bell some kind of way or drilling hole(s) in the bell. i never use the bell (and hate bell work in general. i also hate rim play, but that´s a different thread). : )
of course one day i will buy a better cymbal, but that is far down on the list of Things I Need In Life.
is there a way to make my hats more forgiving of a inconsistent bouncing foot ?
thanks.
