Hi,

SD3 Core content is much more dynamic and not as ‘cranked’ as e.g. the EZdrummer 2 Pop/Rock EZX.
Also, it depends on if you are using a ‘clean’ mixer or not.
I think you will notice a difference from the Default preset and clean kits if you select e.g. the ‘Radio Rock Yamaha’ or ‘Magnetic Tape’ presets, which are processed with EQ, Comp, etc.

I did try “Radio Rock Yamaha” and everything is quite a bit louder. Thx

@ Derek – My computer is a Windows machine… When I switched between EZ Drummer 2 & Superior Drummer 3 I did not change any settings at all.  

Thanks 🙂

UPDATE:
I just tested with EX Drummer 2 and it sounds much better, volume is as expected. When I go back to SD3 it is super quite again. I noticed if I try different drum presses in SD3…..some are quite a bit louder.

wow, interesting…thanks! I have EZD2 as well and will check it out.

1. Did you change any settings at all on the TD-25 when going between the 2?
2. Are you on a Mac or PC?
3. Also, are you going from the TD-25 usb out into your computer or using the midi out into a midi interface and then usb to computer.

Thanks,
D

Ok thanks!

Thanks Henrik,

What would be another way to increase overall output volume? As I mentioned a mouse click of the drum is significantly definitely quite a bit louder (and you noted by default that strike at a 127 velocity) but it is still not “that” loud when listening through headphones with my MacBook Pro 2017 at max volume. Is there something else I should be bumping up as far as overall output?

Thanks,
Derek

Hi Henrik,

If I see that the velocities are low….do I adjust a level upwards via a certain setting OR does that mean I need to strike the drum head harder? 🙂

Thanks,
Derek
