VH-11 hihat pedal issue

Hi Dmitri,

for a long time I was REALLY happy with the megadrum. It still works great - but there is sometimes an issue with my VH-11 "pedal".
Most time it works well - but sometimes it stops working. My LED shows that the pedal is fully opened. Closing it will not be mentioned.
I can solve this issue in most cases if I unplug the "pedal" from my VH-11 and plug it in again.
Sometimes I have to restart the megadrum.
What can I do to get an idea if this is caused by the VH-11 or the MD? I don't have skills in electricity so this maybe a bad idea: You soldered a transistor into the input of the "pedal"
May this cause the issue?
Hope you have an idea :)

Greetings!

T.

Did you try it with another cable?

sorry for the late response! - have been in holidays (London :) )

yes - I tried another cable - but I will try another one

Today I had to unplug the cable from the VH-11 (not the cymbal), caus no "close" was noticed. After plugging it into the VH-11 again it worked again.
