2-5.  Hi-Hat Offset
This sets the value of the data sent by a foot controller connected
to the HI HAT CONTROL jack on the rear panel. Set a + (plus) or
– (minus) level.
UT SYSTEM
HH OffS=  0T= 32
q HH OFFS (Hi-Hat Offset)
When a low data value is received from the foot controller, the
voice will sound sooner. So, slightly pressing the foot controller
will result in the voice sounding. In the case of the hi-hat control-
ler, delicate adjustment of the controller’s  “closed” point is pos-
sible.
w T (Foot Splash Detect Time)
Sets the detect time for the foot splash. Large values make foot
splashes easier to produce.
* Values too large will result in splashes being produced under
normal hi-hat use.
