Compact and easy to set up, it offers authentic hi-hat feel with smooth open/closed transitions, making it the ideal choice for professional drummers seeking silent, late-night practice without sacrificing expressiveness. ## Description Product Description Playing drums at home can be a headache. Traditional acoustic shells are impractical for late-night practice, while many electronic kits are disruptive (even with headphones), due to the sound of the pedals in operation. Roland’s new FD-9 hi-hat controller pedal is the smart way to drive down decibels. Designed for ultra-quiet home practice, the unit’s patent-pending link mechanism means dramatic noise reduction when the pedal is depressed. Expressive players will also appreciate this compact pedal’s authentic hi-hat feel, with smooth transitions between open/closed/half-open positions. With the Roland FD-9, you can play as hard as you like, as late as you want. From the Manufacturer Playing drums at home can be a headache.

Everything worked perfectly except for the hi hat controller. The rubber piece hardened up and couldn’t make contact with the sensor. I looked at and considered a few “fixes” but ultimately decided to go new. Seems like all the Roland stuff is expensive but hopefully it lasts a long time. Review: GREAT BRAND - This product is top-notch in my opinion. It comes packaged very well to minimize any potential for damage during delivery. I’ve never had any issues with this brand. Always GREAT. This one that I am replacing was damaged by my grandson. ## Features - Low-noise operation for late-night practice (50% less noise in your practice space and 15% less to rooms below, compared to standard hi-hat pedal) - Link mechanism allows ultra-quiet operation and authentic hi-hat control - Compact design, easy setup and small footprint for home practice - Use alongside other noise-reducing Roland products, including NE-10 Noise Eater Isolation Boards and NE-1 Isolation Feet, for quietest-ever performance ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01EVR0Z9I | | Amperage | 100 Milliamps | | Best Sellers Rank | #10,492 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #2 in Electronic Drum Controllers | | Brand Name | Roland | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (264) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00761294508909 | | Hardware Interface | 1/4-inch Audio | | Item Dimensions | 14.38 x 5.5 x 6.25 inches | | Item Type Name | Roland Low Noise Hi-Hat Controller (FD-9) | | Item Weight | 2.3 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Roland | | Manufacturer Part Number | FD-9 | | Model Name | FD-9 | | Model Number | FD-9 | | Signal Format | Analog | | Style | FD-9 | | UPC | 761294508909 | | Voltage | 9 Volts | | Warranty Description | See manufacturer's website for details. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Roland - **Color:** Black - **Item Weight:** 2.3 Kilograms - **Style:** FD-9 - **Voltage:** 9 Volts ## Images ![Low Noise Hi-Hat Controller (FD-9) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71mKqiCNfVL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect but pricey *by J***. on January 18, 2023* I bought a used Roland TD-6V locally that was in excellent shape. Everything worked perfectly except for the hi hat controller. The rubber piece hardened up and couldn’t make contact with the sensor. I looked at and considered a few “fixes” but ultimately decided to go new. Seems like all the Roland stuff is expensive but hopefully it lasts a long time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT BRAND *by R***T on March 14, 2026* This product is top-notch in my opinion. It comes packaged very well to minimize any potential for damage during delivery. I’ve never had any issues with this brand. Always GREAT. This one that I am replacing was damaged by my grandson. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than the original , but … *by A***Y on April 2, 2024* I’m no John Bonham, so I probably can’t pick up on the small details that are really good drummer would to offer for your consideration. It works well for my casual plan, though I am scared because I see that the sensor on these things goes.. I’m hoping that only happens for the serious daily drummer , or that the problem was fixed And that this is the better version. It’s probably the former, knowing how businesses work, but so far , so good. ## Frequently Bought Together - Roland FD-9 Low Noise Hi-Hat Controller - Roland KT-10 Low-Noise Kick Trigger Pedal - Roland PDS-20 Drum Pad Solid Stand Support Percussion Instruments (PDS-20), chrome --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/28616736-low-noise-hi-hat-controller-fd-9](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/28616736-low-noise-hi-hat-controller-fd-9) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
