How to make Roland pd-8 pads work with 2box

After Rolandin' for 8 years I moved to 2box. Iam planning to use spare Pd8 pads and cy8 cymbals to trigger some percussions, china, splashes,etc.

However, Iam not able to get a different sound for pd8 rim and head....I did manage to separate the rim and head for 2box pads by accessing them via "more" + pad name key, but for some reason I constantly get the same sound for rim and head for roland pads.

Any hints to make this work?

PD8  rims arent piezo sensor ...  they use switches ... so it s not totally compatible with 2BOX brain .

2BOX design requires piezo sensors for head and rim.

... But you can use PD-8 as monopad , and also as a 2 zone cymbal (with choke and edge sound )
