SDS Hi-Hat

From PCB Revision 1.4 onwards the MIDI-Retrofit 16 includes an additional circuit designed to work with the SDS Hi-Hat module.

The circuit has an input from the SDS HiHat control output and, in response to MIDI ‘Modulation’ Control (0xB1) messages, modulates the SDS Hi-Hat signal which is then presented at the [SDS-HiHat] output.
