Questions frequently asked
Is the PDP PDAX379A compatible with a 7 mm hi-hat rod?
The PDAX379A is designed for a 7 mm hi-hat rod. This size matches many stands using a standard rod.
How does this clutch improve the closing of the hi-hat?
Locking the closed position limits micro-movements caused by vibrations and impacts. The closing remains cleaner, with a more consistent "chick" sound. The slight opening can thus be adjusted more reproducibly.
What material is used for this PDP hi-hat tilter?
The part is made of steel and features a gray finish.
Is this clutch suitable for rock or metal foot playing?
Its design meets the demands where foot playing heavily stresses the hi-hat, especially in rock, funk, pop, and metal. The closed position is maintained to ensure a consistent response during repeated impacts.
Does the PDAX379A change the sound of the hi-hat cymbals?
This clutch does not alter the intrinsic tone of the cymbals. However, a proper adjustment promotes a more consistent closing during fast patterns.
