Thinner hats might be better in your case. The thicker the hats the louder they are. I use a pair of traditional Bosphorus hats and they're very nice. I've got an older heavier pair of New Beats and they're considerably louder. Paiste Signature reflector hats are really nice, but I prefer Paiste's signature series to almost any other cymbal. I like the idea of just turning up the hats in his mix. You don't even need to record it. Just put a mic on the hat and send it through the board to his phones.
