hihat sound when using kick

Postby shuey79 » Thu Apr 17, 2014 8:19 pm

Anyone ever have this problem?? When I use the kick drum the hihat makes a closed sound.
I tried remapping the bass drum but it still happens. I also tried isolating the hihat because I thought it might be cross talk--not the case. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I did just finish rewiring my hihat... I've observed that when its unplugged (hihat input not the controller) the bass drum works correctly. Did I wire something wrong? The odd thing is the hihat works great.

I'm using Superior Drummer, with mac.
All my pads are diy (dual zone) and I'm using a yamaha pcy135 as the hihat and the controller is a hall sensor type.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!! Let me know if I can provide any further information.

By "closed" sound do you mean a chick or a closed hihat cymbal bow/edge/bell hit?

A shot in the dark, have you got 'send triggered in' ticked?

dmitri: I believe its the closed hihat sound that I hear but I'll confirm this.

airflamesred: I have "TriggeredInCC" selected. What is "send triggered in" or are they the same?

It's the same. See TriggeredInCC in http://www.megadrum.info/content/miscellaneous-settings
It shouldn't be enabled during normal playing.

Yep, that was it. Why does triggerInCC enabled do this though? Isn't its function to bring up the current pads settings in MDM? I tried out a yamaha dtx502 which had the same function but it didn't give me the hihat/bass drum issue. Obviously there is something I'm not understanding.

I don't quite understand what the problem is when triggerInCC is enabled it is just a temp helper during initial setting up and should be disabled after that.

The triggerin sends a cc message (4 I think) which is the same as the hat chick. You can see it on the midi log.

It fooled me for a couple of days as it was performing a keyswitch on a certain library I was using.

I think the cctriggerin function in is using cc:1

Keep it off...unless your are seeking for errors and don't know which pad which generates the error...then the cctriggerin could be used to determine where the error comes from.
