As those of you who have a double bass drum pedals know, when playing double bass, your Hi-Hat is basically out of commission. I suppose if you knew you would not require the up-and-down motion, you could adjust the space between the two cymbals to get the desired sound for riding. However, you would have to unlock the upper cymbal and readjust it to return to normal Hi-Hat function, not possible in the middle of the song. Enter the TAMA sizzle touch drop clutch. Once it is installed, which is easy and the adjustments are made to suit your taste, your days of not having to have three legs to play your bass and use your Hi-Hat are over. There are two adjustments, one that sets the space between the upper and lower cymbal when the Hi-Hat is open and the other, which sets the space between the top and bottom cymbals when in the dropped position. This adjustment allows you to create whatever amount of "sizzle" you want, whether it be fairly close together for a tighter sound or further apart to get more of a "slosh" sound. When you are playing, just hit the black lever shown in the first picture to unlock the clutch and the top cymbal drops to its predetermined closed position. Pushing down on the foot pedal locks the clutch returning the Hi-Hat to normal functioning. There are several competitive products that are less expensive. The TAMA clutch is heavy and clearly built to last, I don't see it breaking when hit with a stick. I like the heavy rubber pad on the drop lever that many competitors don't have. But, most of all for me is the Quick-set clutch lock. (see second picture) Every other Hi-Hat I've seen has a double nut holding the felt that is under the top cymbal. Theoretically, the nuts can be locked together to prevent loosening. However, over time the nuts would eventually come loose. Once when I was playing, the top cymbal fell off of the upper clutch and I had to stop to put it back together. The patented TAMA Quick-set clutch lock goes below the felt supporting the top cymbal. The lock snaps into place so it will not come unscrewed. Big improvement over the double nuts. I'm glad I bought the TAMA touch drop clutch. It definitely adds functional value for those with a double bass drum. My son loves it, too!

Cambio sencillo entre control de la apertura y una semiapertura constante para un sonido wash de los platillos. La rosa que sirve de memoria suele caerse ni se aprieta de manera seguida, fuera de eso es un producto excelente
Utilisé sur une pédale de Charleston (Hi-Hat) en complément d'une double pédale OFFSET, ce clutch TAMA est impressionnant par la précision des réglages possibles et l'ergonomie proposée par les ingénieurs nippons de la marque. Vous pouvez jouer en traditionnel ouvert-fermé, mais le débrayage à vis fait que vous pouvez également jouer du Hi-Hat en positionnant la cymbale supérieure légèrement ouverte, ou du coup légèrement fermée, selon vos désirs sonores, tout en jouant de la double grosse-caisse au autres jeux multi-pédale (Cloches au pied, shakers et autres cabassas...) Produit très bien pensé quoique cher, mais robustesse et qualité de fabrication sont toujours au rendez-vous chez TAMA. Bravo!
