Messages for Hi-Hat Control

The TD-8's hi-hat controller also transmits the depth to
which the pedal is pressed, using control change messages.
By default (factory preset), control change 4 is used.
Reception/transmission to/from an external MIDI sequencer
will use this number.
If a MIDI device that you are using already uses control
change numbers 4, you can change these numbers.
