Lemon Drums LE-15CC2 China Cymbal

The Lemon 2-Piece 12″ Electronic Hi-Hat System is the compact alternative to a full-size hi-hat, pairing a dual-zone top cymbal pad with a dedicated bottom-plate controller. The smaller 12″ diameter sits tighter in the kit and responds quickly under the stick, making it a strong choice for compact setups, smaller players, and drummers who want fast, articulate hi-hat work without a large pad taking up rack space.

The dual-zone top delivers distinct bow and edge triggering for tight closed patterns, expressive half-open grooves, and controlled accents, while the bottom-plate controller gives you real foot control over open, closed, and foot-splash sounds. Because hi-hat response is interpreted by the connected module, proper module compatibility and calibration are what bring the feel to life.

The rubber playing surface offers natural stick response while keeping acoustic noise low for home practice. If you’re building a tighter, more compact kit — or simply prefer a quicker, smaller hi-hat feel — the 12″ system gives you full open/closed/foot-splash mechanics in a more economical, space-saving package than the 14″.
