DrumIt 3 and DrumIt 5 Software - PC / Mac / Re: DrumIt Manager: kit editor, manage your .dkit and .dsnd files

Thanks for testing and for the kind words. The added step is the way to go in this case. I should have mentioned it, with the new multi-edit mode the changes are only applied if the new value is different from the default multi-edit value which is based on the first selected kit (except for the dsnd). So if some value from the current kit is already the intended setting to be applied to all the selected kits I would do it in two steps like you did, or change it to something else first before clicking Multi.

Denis, the new functionality works well.  For me - maybe because some of the decay settings were already at infinity and others were at 10 - it worked best to do this in two steps. For example, I first moved all sliders to 9.1, and applied the setting.  Then I moved them all back to infinity and hit Apply.  That worked perfectly.  Without the added step, some of the sliders wouldn't change. Or maybe there was some previous user error.  Either way, I'm happy that this is now so easily accomplished.  Thank you very much for the excellent responsiveness and willingness to continually improve an already wonderful product.

I wonder if it's a bug or just a limitation of the algorithm, based on Deve Loper's comment in this old thread... https://www.2box-forum.com/index.php?topic=3950.0

General 2box Drumit 5 forum / Bug report: Hihat Footsplash triggering on bow

« Last post by Karbonfaiba on May 04, 2021, 06:18:08 PM »

I believe I have discovered a bug whereby a footsplash (zone 9) note is triggered when striking the bow or edge while opening the hihat from a fully closed position.


A footsplash note will often replace what should have been a bow or edge articulation at the equivalent velocity layer. This is problematic for playing hihat barks occasionally.

The module doesn't seem to register (on the display) that it played a note from zone 9 when this happens either, so it's possibly not logged in MIDI - although I haven't checked this yet.

This is on Drumit5 MKII, with any hihat dsnd, with a Roland VH-11, but it would be good if other people could confirm this for me on their modules. This bug seems to be present regardless of calibration settings. If you have PFACT set accordingly to achieve foot splashes, this bug should be apparent.

Hi Bobby,

Thanks for the feedback!

It's a good idea about the multi edit mode, I have sent you a test version with an improved multi edit mode
The Multi-edit mode could already be used to adjust the panning, balance or decay in multiple kits at once, but only as long as the pads were set to the same dsnd instrument. In the next version it will also be possible to use the Multi edit mode to change almost all of the Kit values in multiple kits even when the pads are not set to the same dsnd.

Some improvements. Halftime, What kind of triggers do you use? (I can’t see any of this info in the thread - Just as reference for this post).

I think I can recall an issue from the past - have maybe nothing to do with this issue but I would like to mention it any way...I was once using a Cymbal without any edge trigger...but the settings in 2box was set to a Piezo/Switch implementation ...and the result was just some fantastic latency...and glitches...

It's all Roland at the moment. KD-85, PDX-12, 2xPD-85, PD-105, VH-10, CY-15R, CY-12R/C, CY-8 + CY-5. I have seen your comment before about invalid trigger type selection causing issues and have tried to select the correct trigger types for each pad, but of course I could have missed something. The types for the minimum set of pads that I tried (bass, snare, HH, ride) are Kick1, PadPP, HiHat and CyPSB respectively.

A future forgiving 2box...or a new OS? We just need to nail the problem! :-)

Yeah, with Karbonfaiba's assistance I got some improvement by setting Mask = 3 on all pads. The glitching now appears mostly when I play a beat with both the ride and the hi-hat involved. If I leave either one out, the latency is barely noticeable.

It does seem like it has to do with the trigger settings after all, but I don't really know what more I can do because all my gains & thresholds are quite moderate IMO and I only use a bit of XTalk/X-Trg on the toms. It's the same if I unplug everything except bass, snare, hi-hat and ride. Maybe one of those pads has something faulty that's sending extra trigger data, I don't know.

I totally agree with Karbonfaiba, hopefully the next generation of 2Box (if they ever get there) is a bit more forgiving.

Hi!  I'm a long-time user for SDSE and DrumIt Manager, and think these are both essential products, without which I'm not sure I'd still be using my 2Box, much less considering a second one.

Slight feature request, though.  In Multi edit mode, would it be possible to apply adjustments such as Balance and Decay?  The new default of 10 for Decay is useful, no doubt.  But I find myself dialing most sounds back to infinity.  Would love the ability to change all my kits at once.  Or for another example, pan the 18" crash in all my sets to +4, at once.

Also, I guess it matters only to me, but I've been here since 2010-2011 or longer.  For some reason, the site just made me reregister a few months ago.  Started with ddrum 4 and then jumped on the Drumit 5 when it came out.  (yes, irrelevant. But true!)

Thanks,
Bobby
