It is possible to make the HH "sound like a real drummer" using CC's and it's
done by Natural drum Kit and others. But I do understand why you haven't
implemented it and the resources you have; I still believe that this is a huge
step forward when it comes to virtual drumming in Linux and will use it when
it suits a project.

Well Done!
