I just found this thread and wanted to thank you too Canauos!

Even though you state SOP4, it dropped in fine to SOP5!

I love SD3 and hope to do the same with some of the other libraries.

So two questions –

1. I do not see an export function, once a map is completed. How did you do that?
2. If one does a parallel installation of a new version of SOP, (recommended instead of simply updating) how does one point the newer version to the maps from the older version?

Your drag-n-drop method worked fine, so I guess I just need to figure out how you did an export of that map!

I could find no information on exporting maps in the manual, and the Search function in Exchange does not work for me.

Thanks again Canauos,
MG

Thank you Sir Muso!

I just found your link, and I am certain that I will not be the last one looking for an off-line way to review the manual…

Highest Regards,

Hi, I’d like to echo what Mark is saying. I’m a Yamaha DTX950 owner and have spent 3 days (count ’em) trying to get my RHH135 hi hat to trigger a smooth hi hat transition from fully closed to fully open by using the Yamaha preset in SD3 and tweaking the various parameters available in both the DTX Module and the SD3 software. It’s driving me nuts. Would any of the Toontrack team be able to rig up a RHH135 controller on a hi hat stand to see if they can solve this issue please? Merry Christmas to all BTW.  

Thank you for chiming in Mat!
I was starting to think I’m the last human with a DTX900/950!

By chance, did you have SD2 with the DTX900?
And did the hi-hat/edrum presets seem to work better out-of-the-box with SD2?

I’m just curious if you experienced the same difference.
Thanks!

Happy New Year Year All!!

Alll well and good, but it does not help those of us with the Yamaha DTX900…

Why not? Is the DTX900 using a totally different approach for dealing with the hi hat? If you are not able to configure the settings yourself you could start by posting the raw MIDI data your module is sending. This can help you much more than just complaining.

Mr. Reiner,
I DID post a lengthy report in a similar thread in this very forum, detailing the alterations and changes made to both the DTX900 module’s programming, as well as SD3’s mapping settings.

In searching for that thread, it appears to have been removed.
I searched on my drummaman moniker, as well as SD3 hi-hat variables, and my detailed post is nowhere to be found.

This is a similar thread, and providing feedback to Toontrack in the form of “something’s just not quite right” should be noted.

I would very much like someone at Toontrack to hook up a DTX900 module with the RHH135 hi-hat.
The default for the Yamaha eDrum preset setting in SD2 either got lucky, or there is something different in SD3’s Yamaha hi-hat/mapping preset.

As mentioned in my other post –
In charting the Yamaha’s CC4 data, via Sonar’s midi controller screen, I see a full range of motion from 0-127.

I have adjusted any and all DTX trigger/velocity response curves, SD3’s mapping curves, as well as went as far as turning off the internal polyphonic mode of the DTX900 module…yet I am still getting an out-of-place open, when I should still be getting a semi-open hat splash.

There is honestly something different in SD3 from SD2, with regard to the hi-hat functionality – when used with the Yamaha DTX900 and RHH135.

The preset for the Yamaha hi-hat in SD3 wasn’t even close out of the box compared to SD2.
With a substantial amount of tweaking in SD3, I have it very close.

The Roland adjustments shown in this thread do not help with the Yamaha system, and I was hoping to see another Yamaha DTX900 user chime in.

I truly love everything else about SD3.

Highest and kindest regards,
MG

SDX2 worked much better!!
