Do you think a professional remote hi hat would sound any better? Hey @tamaofficial @griffindrums @gibraltar @mapexdrumsusa @dwdrums - Want to compare yours to mine? DM me for P.O. box!
I've been thinking about doing this for quite a while now, glad to see somebody executing on it! You can buy pretty long Bowden cables in the form of engine stop cables on eBay/Amazon. I think these would function just as well if not better than bike cables for this purpose and it should be easy to get larger lengths.
Pretty cool what you're trying to do. I'm considering building a remote HiHat. The Griffin remote HH is about 185.bucks on eBay. I have more time than money. A shift cable for a automatic transmission was what I thought might work there's a spring in those. PullaPart junk yard might be a place to get one to build a prototype. I sold a friend my double kick pedal , now I want another that I can reverse to left hand. If you watch Harry Miree's video 5 Tips for Drumming Open Handed. You'll see how he has his pedals set up and know why I want another double kick pedal. You can see the Griffin pedal and how it's made somewhat from the photos. Good luck
Sweet! Thanks! Since school started again I have had to put a lot of projects on pause, but now that our school got quarantined for 2 weeks, i might have more time to pick up the project again (with a better cable!)
