Julian,

There is no difference between the pads except that you can choke
the "symbaL" pads. I usually use a regular tom pad for my hi-hat. I
guess if you wanted to be able to choke your hi-hat, you could use a
symbal pad. They are tricky to mount if you don't have the supplied
pole that goes with them. I have 4 such pads but was never able to
get the factory hardware. FYI the bass pad is just a regular Simmons
piezo pad, but with grey rubber... Ask more if you need to!
