Have a huge problem getting my VH-12 hi hat to work correctly with superior 2.3.2 and The Metal Foundry. I´m running my VH-12 on a regular Pearl hi hat stand. No FD-8. I´ve tried all now except upgrading my Roland TD-20 with TDW-20 expansion board. That has the option “CC resolution HIGH” for VH-12. The CC resolution I can view in Key Editor and List Editor in Cubase 5 only givs CC 90 when fully Closed hi hat and I´m pushing my hi hat pedal very hard, and CC 40 when fully Open. It should be 127 fully Closed and 0 at fully Open. I have tweeked and tweeked and tweeked the velocity curve in superiors mapping page (hatsCtrl) and factory reset my TD-20 countless of times and made 1000 of offset calibrations on my VH-12 hi hat,….but no. All the changes from closed to open are very abrupt in superior 2.3.2. Is there any one out there who has a fresh and new advice? It is said that I don´t need to upgrade my TD-20 with TDW-20. Could there be anything wrong with my TD-20 module? Is it a possible defect that could happen in a TD-20?…that it doesen´t send the whole range of CC from a VH-12 hi hat? I have also tried to change my VH-12 to another VH-12, but the result was the same. Anyone who has an idea?

Have noticed the same thing with EZD2.
Once the VH-12 offset has been configured as per the manual for the TD-20, if the high-hat is physically closed (clutch loose/under its own weight) the midi note sent codes for a very open hat ‘open 3’.
More importantly there seems to be very little finesse / optimisation within EZD2 for what the VH-12/TD-20 is sending under default TD-20 settings.
Anyone got any suggestions for config or fancy tweaking the code for this (fairly common) setup?
Ignore my comment. The Roland kit preset within ezd2 is perfectly adequate – just a matter of using it!!!
Hi Everyones.
First i’m so glade for my bad english speaking,
I try use an Alesis DM10 with SD 2 in rewire in Logic X for recording.
The High-Hat closed sometimes when i play open and “vice versa” when i play closed.
But the e-drum work perfect with SD 2.in toontrack solo In (Stanalone)Confused
@waleed432:
Hi, are you really using Rewire in Logic? Superior 2 is an AU plugin.
The latest version available is (currently) 2.4.0.
Load the AU plugin, go to the Mapping page and select MIDI Note Mapping Preset ‘Alesis’ – the MIDI Preset Menu is located right above the keyboard at the bottom of the Mapping page.
