Which technique do you play on the hi-hat?
When I play soft, jazzy or swing tunes I play heel down, because my other leg goes heel down. In rock etc I use heel up to get more power and to get sharper splashes. I also incorporate a lot of heel-toe on the hi-hat to get that "splash-chick" sound and have my hands free to play the ride or toms. What do you guys use?
