RHH130
OWNER’S MANUAL
■Output Level Adjustment
Controls the level of the trigger output from the RHH130. Use a small screwdriver, etc. to
rotate the level adjustment knob.
Rotate the knob to the right (+) to increase the output level, or to the left (–) to decrease
output level. The pad's output level should be adjusted in regards to how hard you hit the
pad, to adjust the pad's dynamic range, or to better match the pad to the type of DTX
Series Drum Trigger Module (DTXPRESS/DTX/DTXTREME) you are using.
■Replacing Worn Pads
•After extended use, some of the parts used on the RHH130 will wear out or their
quality will deteriorate (pad rubber, connecting jacks, etc.). The life of these parts will
vary depending upon the circumstances under which the RHH130 is used.
•Please ask the dealer from whom you purchased the device about replacing worm
parts.
Adjusting the Voice Volume
To change the volume of the voice assigned to the RHH130 pad, use the [VOICE]
edit mode in the DTX Series Drum Trigger Module. Please refer to the Owner's
Manual that came with your module for more information.
NOTE: When the RHH130 is used with a DTX Series Drum Trigger Module (DTXTREME/DTX/
DTXPRESS), enter the module's Trigger Edit Mode and set the [PAD Gain] (pad input level)
parameter so that the display reads 90-95% when the pad is struck ff (fortissimo). Refer to the
Owner's Manual that came with your module for more information.
If the output level is too high, the pad's dynamic range (the difference between loud and soft
tone) will be reduced and trouble such as double triggers (multiple triggers being produced by
a single stroke) may occur.
Do not put excessive pressure on the level adjustment knob, it may result in damage.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha RHH130 Real Hi-Hat Pad. The RHH130 is a trigger pad, which
incorporates a hi-hat control function, designed for use in an electronic drum system. The RHH130
can be attached to your hi-hat stand just as you would a regular hi-hat and offers greater realism
in performance when compared to previous hi-hat controller/pad combinations. To get the most
out of your RHH130, please read this Owner's Manual thoroughly. Also, after reading the manual,
keep it in a safe place for future reference.

■Inside This Package
Before setup, please make sure that all of the items listed below are present and ac-
counted for. If anything is missing, please contact the dealer from whom you purchased
the unit.
* To customers who purchased a pads set (DTPK95MSP, etc.), please refer to the attached “Accesso-
ries List”sheet included with each pads set when confirming package contents.

■Setting Up
Before setting up the RHH130, prepare a hi-hat stand (such as one of the Yamaha HS
Series stands, etc.), then follow the procedures below to setup the RHH130.
Make sure the stand is setup in a stable and secure manner. If the clamp bolts, etc are not
tightened securely, the pad or stand can fall over causing injury. Also, placing the rack or stand
on an unstable surface, etc., can cause the pad or stand to fall over, resulting in injury.
Since hi-hat stands made by other manufacturers may not be compatible with the RHH130,
we recommend that a Yamaha hi-hat stand be used. (Recommended: HS650, HS740)
1Attach the clamp base to the RHH130
main unit. First, loosen the nut on the
clamp base and remove the open
clamp.
2Set the hi-hat stand on a stable surface.
Remove the hi-hat clutch and cymbal
support (rubber, felt, etc.) that came
with the hi-hat stand.
If the stand is equipped with an angle
adjustment screw, loosen the screw so
that its end is not sticking out from the
cymbal support plate.

using the RHH130 however,
keep it in a safe place for future
use. )

■Troubleshooting
If the following trouble occurs when the RHH130 is used, please check the following
points before asking your dealer for assistance.
What to check
Problem
Is the RHH130 properly con-
nected to the DTX Series Drum
Trigger Module using the two
supplied stereo cables?
Refer to the previous [Connections] section and make sure
that all connections are proper.
Is the Level Adjustment Screw on
the RHH130 set too low?
If the Level Adjustment Screw is set too low, the single pro-
duced by the pad will be too low to produce sufficient volume
from the drum trigger module’s tone generator even though
the pad is struck.
Is the module properly con-
nected to a pair of headphones
or an external audio device such
as an amplifier, speaker, etc.?
Check the connections between the external device and the
position of the power switch and volume level.
Are module settings correct?
Check the volume setting of the voice assigned to the INPUT
number to which the RHH130 is connected (refer to the previ-
ous [Adjusting the Voice Volume] section), or make sure the
headphones volume level is not set too low, etc.
●Hitting the pad once produces multiple sounds (Double trigger)
What to checkProblem
Is the level adjustment on the
RHH130 set too high?
Too high of a the level adjustment setting causes the drum
module to produce multiple sounds because the large signal
produced by the high settings sustains for too long of a time.
Refer to the [Output Level Adjustment] section described
above to properly set the pad's output level.
●No Sound, Volume is Low
●The edge and/or pad sections do not produce any sound. The Control Func-
tion does not function.
What to check
Problem
Is the RHH130 connected to the
proper INPUT number on the
DTX Series Drum Trigger Module
using the two supplied stereo
cables?
Refer to the [Connections] section described above and make
sure that the RHH130 is connected to the proper INPUT num-
ber on the module. The RHH130 will not operate using a
monaural cable.
Are module settings correct? Refer to the section on trigger settings in the Owner's Manual
that came with your module and make sure settings are cor-
rect.
●A pad voice sounds when the foot is removed from the hi-hat pedal. (Noise)
What to checkProblem
Is the clutch base making con-
tact with the top unit inside of the
main unit?
Check [step 4 in the Setup] section described above.
Also, please refer to the Owner's Manual that came with your DTX Series Drum Trigger Module
(DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS) for more information regarding the problems described above and any
other problems that you may be experiencing.
If a solution can not be found to the problem after consulting the manuals, please contact the dealer from
whom you purchased the product.

3 After loosening the wing bolt on the
RHH130, slide the RHH130 onto the hi-
hat stand shaft then set the RHH130
so that it is horizontal to the cymbal
support plate. Swivel the clamp base
up so that the hi-hat stand's vertical pipe
can be clamped between the clamp
base and open clamp. Then tighten the
nut to secure the clamp base.

4Raise the clutch base to a suitable
height, and tighten the wing bolt to se-
cure the hi-hat shaft to the clutch base.
As the upper position of the clutch base
represents the open hi-hat position (the
space between the open cymbals), set
clutch base position according to your
playing style.
■Connections
Using the two supplied stereo phone cables, connect the RHH130's output jacks to the
input jacks on your DTX Series Drum Trigger Module (DTXTREME/DTX/DTXPRESS).
First, connect the RHH130's [PAD] output jack to the module's [HI-HAT] input jack, then
the RHH130's [HI-HAT CONTROL] output jack to the module's [HI-HAT CONTROL] in-
put jack. The L-shaped connectors should be connected to the RHH130.
●Module Settings
The following changes to settings should be made according to the type of tone
module you are using. Please refer to the your tone module for further information.
Wing Bolt
Clamp Base
Open Clamp
Nut
Clutch Base
Top Unit
Hi-Hat Shaft
Nut
Raise
Center Shaft
*Make sure that the main unit is set horizontally in relation to the cymbal support plate. If not, the
RHH130 may not function properly, or cause the hi-hat shaft to bend.
*Setting too wide of a stroke may result in the clutch base making contact with the top unit inside of
the cymbal pad and producing unexpected sounds while playing.
Output Jack
Insert Insert
*The RHH130 incorporates switches in its edge and controller sections. Make sure that a stereo
cable is used when making connections between the RHH130 and the module. The RHH130 will
not operate using a monaural cable.
Setting Up Connections
The RHH130 is especially designed to take advantage of the powerful features offered
by the DTXTERME
II s and DTXPRESS III . The RHH130 can be used with the older
model tone modules listed below as long as changes to settings, also described below,
are made. However, be aware that the RHH130’s performance will not be the same as
that with the DTXTREME
II s or DTXPRESS III .
