ABSTRACT:
Remote wire hi-hat apparatus is actuated by the pedal of the first hi-hat apparatus via flexible cable. A lever connecting the foot pedal of the master hi-hat and the flexible cable of the slave hi-hat is fixed to the pedal by a screw used to attach a chain or belt connected to the elevator rod of the master hi-hat. The flexible cable is connected to the lever by means of ring-shaped attachment unit. Housing of the sheath of the flexible cable is at the lower part of the hollow post of the master hi-hat stand. At the other end of the flexible cable there is a hollow post of the slave hi-hat. In the hollow post of the slave hi-hat there is a spring used to return the cable to the starting position. To achieve that the foot pedal is to be worked with the same force there are springs with hollow screws and nuts placed between top and bottom cymbals of both master and slave hi-hats. Instead of the said lever there can be a set of two pulleys placed between foot pedal and elevator rod of the master hi-hat.
