Card content for every 2box module is available on the official 2box site:

Thank you very much for your detailed response.

Hello,

Would these converters also work with other brand cymbals as long they have bell and edge (piezo/switch) TRS sockets ?
Is the bell/bow seperation still as good as when using the 2-zone CyCup setting ?

Thank you Nico for your answer.

I have bought this one :https://www.long-mcquade.com/products/283141/
is this correct in Canada?

No, the label on the picture shows output 18VDC. You need a powersupply with 18VAC output (input 120V/60Hz for Canada I believe is correct) for the 2box mk1. They are not so easy to find with AC output, perhaps better to buy specific for 2box in case of doubt and frying your drummodule.

Hello,


The 2box mk1 requires 18VAC (and not 18VDC as most power supplies do). The mk2 module however is 12VDC. The correct voltage is labeled on the module (AC IN or DC IN). Lets check first if you have the correct power supply.

edit: seems like connecting DC to AC will have this behavior on audio for mk1.

I believe it was a worn out encoder. Have it also on my old mk1. For now I just turn them slow to select. There is another topic about this issue:

Hi, you moved from Europe to US. The original European 2box power supply is 230VAC/50Hz which will probably not work in US (where the standard is 110VAC/60Hz?). Have a look at the spec labeled on the power supply.

13 inch hihat and not 14 as currently in the specifications on the 2box site.
It does seem to float more natural than the original 12 inch 2box hihat.

The new xtalk setting in 1.34.10/1.36.1 for head and rim did not work on my setup on bigger pads (Diamond drums 12 and 14 inch with side trigger).
Head frequently triggers the rim on different (LP/HP/X-ADJ) settings. OS1.32.4 gives no problems LXTR set vHigh.

For lag/latency issues, on DI5 (running various OS since 1.2x) I occasionally noticed it only when using bigger samples while playing busy patterns on multiple pads including ride/hihat.
No idea what the recommended sample length, dsnd size is but it looks like the 2box stock sounds are processed to meet the module hardware specifications.

Many 2box owners might be interested in the 14 inch hihat. Unable to see if it has one (DI5mk1) or two cables to connect (DI3/DI5mk2 only). I see card content is now available on 2box support page and has different filesize from DI3. Wonder if it already includes new samples. Sonor SQ1 perhaps ?

Few weeks later OS1.36.1 already available but no improvement on x-talk head/rim. Keeping 1.32.4...

Did you also try this?:
X-ADJ: Boosts the Trigger preference for the current sensor (Head/Rim) if X-TLK sound is triggered on
Head/Rim

Hi, yes I played with these adjustments (to max 12db) on head and rim. I believe boosting the head would be required in case the unwanted rim sound is heard.

It is great OS version! The xtalk function between head/rim is a very good improvement for the users that experienced problems in the previous version with the separation and ghost notes.

Unfortunately not to me. I am only able to get perfect results on my 10 inch tom with the new xtalk function, 12 and 14 inch head frequently triggers the rim. I checked the manual to try different settings (LP/HP). Back to 1.32.4 gives no problems LXTR set vHigh.
Diamond drums with center piezo moved to the side (still mounted on the plastic disc) using drumtec design 2-ply mesh.
