Hi
I'm not too sure , but i think you should be able to do what you need by changing the "POFF" parameter .
if you keep turning it , the gap between the hi hats is actually displayed on the Drumit3 screen .
The way i'm looking at it is
POFF = the max height i want my top hi hat cymbal at .
PFACT =my foot "chick" threshold .

Hope it helps ....happy turning ;)

All the best

Hi ,
I'm using the drumit 3 with a roland FD7 and a CY5 or a DIY pad and stereo jacks for everything  and everything works well . i did adjust the RAW preset and found out that it's pretty sensitive / touchy .
However once around the 840 or so mark it works pretty well .
As per the manual , i'm using the Def type .

Just out of curiosity , your not stepping on the pedal while your adjusting the preset (knob ) right ?

Thanks and all the best .

Hey paulf yup , it happens mostly on the edge samples of the hi hat , i tried various pads n stuff , but the hi hat edge zone is always sort of open . Also i don't think ive ever manged to get a really tightly closed hi hat sound , maybe i've just not calibrated my pedal right ;)
Thanks for the info :) , really helps :) .

Thanks edtc . hmmmm the bell cutting a bow or edge makes sense .
i'm not having an issues with cross talk between different pads or the different zones as such , just found it interesting , especially with the cymbal samples that have such long (and nice ) decays , the edge and bow areas feel a little funny (to me) with two different tails playing at similar times .
i'm going to probably try and toy around with the decays for fun ;) .
Thanks for the insights again :) .
All the best

Hey all

Just received my Drumit 3 approximately a week back and have been in the process of setting things up .
Needed some thoughts or info regarding the way the Drumit handles the various zones of the drums / cymbals .
So while testing stuff for my DIY 3 zone cymbals , i noticed that the different zones do not cut off or mute each other .
For instance , suppose i strike the edge of a cymbal , i get the crash , but if i immediately hit the bell or bow area, the edge sample still goes on without being cut . ( A bit un natural to my ears  ;) ) .
I noticed the same thing between the head and rim sounds on the drum channels as well . For example the head and rim or cross stick on the snare .

I used to use and Alesis DM10 prior to the 2box , and it had these "Mute Groups" where you could only trigger one zone from a pad at once .
Not like its a really big issue for me , but i just wanted to know if any of you guys had a similar issue or your thoughts about it .
I could be wrong or maybe i'm overlooking something , but i don't see anything about it in the user manual as well .

Really enjoying the module though ....the possibilities WOW  ;D.

Thanks in advance
