Roland TD-12 issues with S 2.0 + metronome question

[Derek_81]

Hi,
ive connected 2 dual zone cymbal pads to the AUX1+2 outputs of my td-12. when i hit for example the bow of the aux2 pad, the bass drum in S2.0 is triggered. if i hit the edge of this pad the rim sound of the snare is triggered…
when i try to fix this with the learn funktion and for example select a chinese or splash sound for the aux pad, the same sound is triggered when i hit the snare rim or bass drum. nearly the same problem with aux1. it seems like one sound is double assigned with two pads… help!

next question: is it possible to get rim clicks or sidestick sounds when i hit the snare rim softly and rimshots when i hit the rim harder? …like the td-12 factory sounds?

finally…how can i get the new tonntrack solo metronome running? i click on view – > metronome then select metronome on… but the drop down menus of first /other beats in the click sounds section is empty… i cannot select a sound…

my system: roland td-12 connected via midi to M-audio delta audiophile 2496 sound card, windows vista x64.

Hi,

1)It sounds like your TD-12 is sending the same MIDI notes from youe aux inputs as it is for your Bass drum and snare – On your TD-12 go to INST > F4 (control) > F3 (MIDI) and then hit you aux pads (bow and edge) to see what notes are being sent….if you then hit your snare (head and rim) and kick to see if the notes are the same…..If they are then you need to change the notes sent from your aux inputs…..it may be worth looking at the Superior 2 note assignments and changing the notes on your TD-12 to correspond with the cymbals you want to trigger.

2)The TD-12 should send separate notes when XSTICK is selected from the TD-12’s first screen, so you should get separate sidestick and rimshots if your TD-12 notes are default

3)This is a known issue on PC and will hopefully be fixed soon

there were no “double” midi notes, but i changed the notes anyway… now it works.
