Setting up Hi Hat Controller with Electronic Drums 1: VFD

This is our step by step tutorial for edrum users who want the comfort of using a traditional hi hat stand with electronic drums and cymbals.

We all need help setting up our rigs, and here we offer a little insight for those in need. Virtual Percussion Technology, or VPT, can be for everyone. Because it's such an upgrade from current electronic drum solutions, it takes a desire to learn. "VPT For Drummies" is our way of teaching! Let's have some fun!

Here, we're using:

Toontrack - Superior Drummer 2.0
Pintech - HHC (Hi Hat Controller)
Alesis - Trigger Io
Gibraltar - Hi Hat Stand

We utilize all types of controller for the hi hat with the RET Percussion electronic drums. We want to give you the best options for control.

We have the Real Feel, Real Look, and Real Sound... that's VPT.
