Importing Roland TD-12 Settings

[TiLL_Wo]

Hi everyone!

I just bought Superior 2 and set up everything. I use Roland TD-12 Drums and downloaded the E-Drum Templates from the support section. The included manual tells me to “load the configuration into the Superior Drummer Instrument”… How can I do this? I cannot find any function that is able to load .dfh-files. Whether in my host (ProTools LE 8) or in Toontrack SOLO.

The background of my question is – my hats (VH-11) don’t work properly and I suppose it’s a matter of configuration. Every other drumpad works fine – but might just be a coincidence.

I’d be glad about some help with this as I can’t use SD in it’s current setup.

Thanks!

Till

Update: I clicked Presets – MIDI – Manage in Finder and dragged the file “Default TD-12.dfh” in there. I restarted my host program but I can’t see the preset in the list.

My system btw is a MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.5.6.

Any help much appreciated.
Thx!

I’m struggling with the same issues… I can’t find decent instructions anywhere how to do it.
 
In Toontrack Solo it worked though with choosing E-drums + CC Offset in MIDI –> controls menu. Then GM Extended in the presets –> MIDI menu. The Hi-hat works fine that way. But when opening SD2 in my Cubase LE these menus are gone! I’ve been trying to drummap manually with midi learn and stuff but can’t get it working as it should. Really frustrating! Let me know if you got any better luck 🙂

Hi guys,

the old .dfh SAVE files are for the Legacy dfh Superior (1) plugin, these can’t be opened in Superior 2 since it has a completely new and different structure, i.e. it isn’t the same plugin.
If you look at the top of the E-drum Discussions section, there”s a Sticky with a Superior 2 Generic E-drum MIDI preset. There are also a lot of threads covering how to tweak this MIDI Preset with the current release of Superior 2.
If you hold out just a little while, there will be at least some new changes/additions making it into the next Superior 2 update making this set up procedure easier indeed.

Best Regards,
John
