http://rumpu.net/index.asp?sivu=galleria&kuva=9716 (1st in left)
http://rumpu.net/index.asp?sivu=galleria&kuva=9714 (and here as tom 1)

I have 2 of those and i wonder what Ddrum model that would be?

The white pads must be ddrum2 or even before (ddrum rack) pads
The black pad perhaps is a ddrum3 pad

The ddrum2 pads had a ''ddrum pad'' sticker on their back
The ddrum3 pads had ''ddrum 3'' written on their back
Perhaps the stickers are removed

The ddrum4 pads were silver

But also have a ddrum 4 se and the pads are red and black, not silver.

White ones has sticker but it says only Ddrum? If i remember correct... i think that those are Ddrum2. I got those with that module. But those Black pads are mystery, those doesn`t remind any ddrum pads at all? I mean those plastic parts are flat and if compare to ddrum2, DD2 are "hitech" and those black pads are more "ancient" looking :P What kind were pads with Ddrum AT?

None, since the ddrum AT was for acoustic drum triggering

That`s why i couldn`t find any pics of those :-[ This turns very interesting, i mean those black plastic pads. Maybe i have to open one of those and look if there`s some sign of manufacturer inside.

Another question goes to puttenvr (also others can answer this), i have asked this allready in another forum but couldn`t get solved. I have problem with Ddrum4SE module and hihat. It doesn`t work, it gives only open hihat sound while playing that hihat. I have calibrated it, but it doesn`t help. I have working stereo cable there also...
Should i try to Factory Reset?

I would try to rest the module, factory reset.
I had a SE 4 and used the same cable for al pads eand cymbals, what do you mean with stereo cable ?

Ok, i`ll have to do that. I have i slight problem with that operation also. I have really good samples in my module now and i will loose them after reseting. I have that cd where`s samples are (Phillips, Chambers etc etc) but my computer and module refuses to work together  :o

Only that hihat requires stereo cable, like this http://www.majadu.co.uk/xlr-male-to-635mm-14-stereo-jack-cable-lead---1m-689-p.asp

Well I have checked my cables and there are no stereo cables, I am almost sure that the hi-hat doesn't need a stereo cable.
There are tree chanals in a xlr cable and I think it uses 2 for the hihat and 2 for the clutch function.
I shares the earth channel.

I can not test it anymore, I have a ddrum3 know, but a will try to make a stereo split cable and hopefully a can use the ddrum4 hihat on the ddrum3.
the ddrum3 has to inouts for the hihatm one for the pad and one for the hihat/clutch function.

Like this:

Well today, when trying the Y cable option for the hihat (see earlier post), i found out that I do have one stereo ddrum cable.
So you maybe right about the stereo cable needed for the hihat.

Btw the Y cable option didn't work on the ddrum3  >:(

I have the ddrum4se and cast hi hat, and you do need a stereo cable for it to work.

That hihat problem goes weird,

i`ve done factory reset, i have trieds various stereocables, i have tried another magnet on hihat clutch... but still hihat doens`t work, it gives only hihat open sound. I have opened module and checked (eye wiew) that jointings are ok... any ideas what to do next?

Thanks to this old thread I got my DDrum 4 SE hi hat working by just finding a stereo cable.

Psyched to find this community and learn about 2box.
