NOTE
Here you can specify with which MIDI note the respective channel will send and
receive "NOTE ON" and "NOTE OFF" messages with. Channels with multiple zones
use a consecutive sequence of MIDI notes (see also ZONES, as well as explanations
about MIDI notes on page 14). Push the DATA controller to toggle between the display
of the note (e.g. "C1") and the display of the respective MIDI note number (e.g. "24").
The MIDI note number "0" equals the MIDI note "C-
1“. You can use the range from 0
(C-1) to 127 (G9).

o = choke function (G4, D5 and G5)
MIDI Messages Hi-Hat and Cymbals
A cymbal stroke at the zones 1 (Bell), 4 (Bow) or 8 (Edge) generates a NOTE ON and a
NOTE OFF command. A choke generates a NOTE ON command which continues until the
pad is released (NOTE OFF).
Playing the hi-hat in the zones 4 or 8 also generates both a NOTE ON and NOTE OFF
signal. Parallel to this, the DrumIt-Five module produces pedal controller data. When you
step on the hi-hat pedal (Zone 9), initially only a NOTE ON message is generated. When the
pedal moves back up, a NOTE OFF message is transmitted. The time between the NOTE
ON and NOTE OFF message determines whether a chick (long duration) or a foot splash
sound (short duration) is generated.
