Does anyone know if the hi-hat from the Speedlight kit, will be sold seperately?

Many 2box owners might be interested in the 14 inch hihat. Unable to see if it has one (DI5mk1) or two cables to connect (DI3/DI5mk2 only). I see card content is now available on 2box support page and has different filesize from DI3. Wonder if it already includes new samples. Sonor SQ1 perhaps ?

The hihat is using the same type of connections as the old 2box hh. It is using a hall room sensor for the pedal...just as the old one. Top and bottom hihat pads...the magnet is located inside. Works very good in my opinion.

To my knowledge- it won’t be sold as a separate part...but this could have been changed.

Top and bottom hihat pads
No bottom pad, the hihat rests on a plastic tray with foam

13 inch hihat and not 14 as currently in the specifications on the 2box site.
It does seem to float more natural than the original 12 inch 2box hihat.

I care about that too. Is the hihat compatible with the old module?
Title: Re: New 2Box Speed Light Kit

It works on DrumIt Five...(the old module)

I have not seen it been sold separately.

Hi all just got a login for forum.

I'm interested in the hi hat performance of speedlight kit as I've not been able get decent results from my roland cy5 & FD8.
I've seen one vendor online selling a speedlight cymbal set ( HH, Crash, ride) which might be a solution even though I don't really need the crash and ride but I'd guess they will all work fine right out the box.

Welcome to the forum!
Which 2box module are you using with your cy5/fd-8? If three or five mk2...you should get quite descent results out of the box. The hi-hat included in the speedlight kit is a magnet based 1 zone implementation which performs quite well.

Hi, I'm using the cy5 & FD 8 with the five mk11 module but have not been able to find a setting I'm happy with.
On closing the pedal the foot splash sound is way too hot. My gain is at zero.
I've also struggled to get good bell response from a roland cy 13r so I might take the plunge and go for the speedlight cymbal pack and move the Cy13 to be a crash and the cy5 to be another input (tambourine or something).
