Hi. I’ve recently got a TD4kx2 roland electronic drum kit and hooked it right onto SD2 through Nuendo 3. Everything works lovely, except for one annoying issue I was hoping someone could help me with.
The hihat.
The hihat responds very strangely when using it with SD2, whereas when playing through the TD4 module it’s fine and can be used with no problems.
I read somewhere that as the pedal moves, midi information constantly flows to SD2, and that midi information does things such as..
Crossfade the closed hihat sound into the open hihat sound if you hit the hihat and lift the pedal shortly afterwards.
Or the opposite. Crossfade an open hihat sound into a hihat that’s closing, as you press the pedal down. This works very well and sounds nice
Here’s the issue: Crossfading from closed hits to open pedal sounds doesn’t work as well. When lifting your foot off the pedal while playing you can often distinguish layers of hihat sounds being intertwined and this results in very messy hihat sounds.
I can’t be the only one that has come across and noticed this, as this was happening straight out of the box. And I know that the issue is how the SD2 handles the midi signals the pedal sends, as the hihat sounds natural when playing through the module. Is this adjustable/fixable?
