General 2box Drumit 5 forum / Double triggering on ride
December 17, 2012, 07:05:08 PM
Anyone had a double trigger problem on a ride cymbal. The theashold is set -27 and the gain is at 0M... and when I played I can hear the occasional "flam" on ride notes. I swapped the pad and it doesn't do it on the other one so it's a pad issue, I have hardly used the kit since I have been on a ship for 6 months so it's almost new. Though I didn't buy it from new so can't take it back to the shop under warrantee. Any ideas of what to look for?

Thanks for the replies people, I'll have a look tomorrow. I emailed 2box and they replies claiming "there's no latency!"
Au contrare! You'd think that any pro drummer that would have demo'd the protype would have notices this as I did within minutes of first turning it on and said, "great kit but nail the latency as that sucks ass!" seemingly if they did, 2 box didn't. But I'll have a check tomorrow.

General 2box Drumit 5 forum / Snare latency

Hi!
Has anyone noticed an annoying latency issue with the snare. It only seems to happen when your playing 8th notes on pedal hat while riffing around on ride, toms, kicks and snare. As soon as the pedal hi hats are triggered at 8th notes I've been noticing a latency in snare hits.
If this is across the board, poor show 2box! Well disappointed and thus will be selling the whole kit as a result which would be a shame because I does sound great. Much like Ddrum before it, they focused on how real it sounded above the gimmicks.

Dear 2Box Drumit Five users!
I have just bought one S/H for an extremely good price and have just set it up and and a brief bash at it and am pleased with what I found so far. I have no updates the OS nor have I loaded any new sounds for it, but have downloaded them from the 2box site. I haven't calibrated the hi hat yet nor have I properly set up trigger gains, thresholds, curves for all drums.
I was for may years a Ddrum 4/3 user and am hoping this kit is going to be the thing that relights my love for edrums, not that it died, I just haven't owned an ekit for 5 years, though I have played on some version of V-drums on the ship I work on with very little love for it.
So this is just an "hello" "bear with me, it's been a while" and "any tips or pit falls I should know about?" before I get up tomorrow and start messing with it properly.
Steve
