The Roland FD7 hi-hat control pedal is a foot-operated device used to control the sound of a hi-hat cymbal in an electronic drum kit. It has been used by many professional drummers, including Steve Gadd, Dave Weckl, and Chad Smith. The pedal works by sending a signal to the drum module when it is pressed, which then triggers the sound of the hi-hat. It features a variable tension adjustment, allowing the user to customize the feel of the pedal, as well as a dual-zone trigger for playing open and closed hi-hat sounds. It also has a built-in mute switch for silent practice.
