Please add positional sensing for ride and toms (ride ctrl CC#17 and tom ctrl CC#18).
It would be great to use this Roland midi feature (TD-10+TDW1,TD-12, TD-20, TD-30)!
It’s probably not so much about adding the positional sensing feature to the Toms and Rides – the Libraries released up to now are not recorded that way but instead use the separate notes sent as standard.
The Snare has Center and Edge recorded for all libraries, since positional sensing on the Snare has been standard for a long time.
Yes sure, I am aware that a new library would be needed. Maybe a derivate of the new EZD2 library, or even better a new SD3 ;-).
It is difficult to get detailed information on the existing libraries – I recently bought the C&V SDX and then realized, that there is no positional sensing for snare! Very disappointed. Also mute tail articulations are missing, like in most SDX libraries. These small features make a difference to me, as I am an e-drummer.
So why not clean up SD and release new libraries loaded with all and new features to support the possibilities of v-drums midi? I know I am asking much, but this would be absolutely great and outstanding!
Regarding positional sensing on snare: I would like 3 zones at least, instead of center and edge only.
Without changing the way libraries are recorded.. I wonder if SD2 could somehow “blend” the two samples (snare edge and center, for example) proportionally to the CC value received, in order to simulate the in-between sound you get on a real head ? I wonder if it would sound good / real enough.
There could probably be some selectable non-linear curves (akin to the hi-hat correction curves) that you could use to tailor the response.
