TD-6 E-drum Module with FD-8 Foot controller pedal HiHat

Hello, I checked all E-drums section, but didn’t founded any solution.
So, I have latest Superrior drummer VST plugin and TD6-KV e-drums, and I have real problems with Hihat.
I have loaded TD-6 presest, but it didn’t help me. My problem, then FD-8 pedal is very sensitive I think, and actually 3 position of hi-hat (closed, open 1, open 2) played in near 5-10mm of pedal movement and then open 3 hihat before end of pedal movement. It’s more problematic, because open 1 position sounds when I even have my pedal closed (smalles variation of pedal cause open 1 sound).

I think I need somehow to set another dependence between pedal position (i.e. Foot Control value) and accordingg hi-hat sound. But I can’t find this.
I think maybe also problem in TD-6 module, but I didn’t founded any Foot sensivity in settings, and through internal processor hi hat sounds normally.

Hi Artyom,

the Superior Support section of the Forum is here:
http://www.toontrack.com/forum/tt.aspx?forumid=19

However, you only need to post there if you have Superior specific help questions.
E-drum centric question should still be posted in this section.

There is an E-drum generic MIDI preset posted here:
http://www.toontrack.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=61431
which is pre-set up with the Hihat Trig notes, etc.
You should not assign the articulations, Closed, Open, etc. to trig notes.
There are a lot of posts in this section discussing this.
Start with installing and loading the MIDI preset when you work in Sonar and tweak from there.
To get Cymbal chokes to respond to Aftertouch, you:
select a Cymbal, Enable the Envelope for it, switch it to respond to ‘Aftertouch’ and then tweak the Release time.
Typical values would be in the 50-100 ms range.

Best Regards,
John

Hi, to all.

I have another problem. I actually don’t sure it’s concerned with Superior, but maybe anybody have a solution. When play in little-open position on hi-hat (near 100 by foot controller) there is problem with strong kicks, because seems this kicks have an effect on VH-11 controller and it switch to 127 value on a little time. As result it’s very problematic to play with little open hi-hat (actually I can use only three positions normally now).

I think maybe it’s possible to some remap E-drums preset to switch hat positions on another values of foot control (I think near 127-80-30-0 will ok).

P.S. I guess I have this problem, because I have very little physical movement between MIDI 127 and 80 foot controller.

Thanks for all.

I some solved problem with strong kicks, but it will still good if possible to remap current e-drums template
