If I use the mouse to trigger china1 it actually triggers the bell portion of crash ride 2, but if I use my midi keyboard (Alesis Q49) I can trigger china1 ok but none of the keys trigger crash ride 2????? Any ideas?
It gets weirder, if I change the crash ride 2 to the 23″ Sabian or none, the China 1will then trigger the bell of the ride cymbal???
Hi Graham,
the dfh EZX is based on a product released long before the current GM extended MIDI mapping and articulation scheme was set, so it may include some oddities compared to the rest of the Toontrack line.
Regarding the mapping of the Crash Ride 2 articulations; they’re on note numbers 32 + 108-116.
If you click the Help (?) Menu in EZdrummer and go to the DRUMKIT FROM HELL > MIDI layout entry, it will open up a PDF document with all articulations and their note numbers.
BR,
John

I’ve got a similar problem and I just bought DFH today, so I’m a little bit disappointed to see the problem hasn’t been fixed yet…
If I set China 1 to None or 20″ Sabian HH Dark Chinese (Ride), it always triggers China 2…
But if I set China 2 to None, then China 1 triggers Spock.
Please do something or I’ll have to cancel my purchase since it doesn’t work like it should.
Edit: it’s a problem from the user interface, not the midi mapping.
OK, sorry guys I had to download a cracked version to fix the problem…
Here’s how I fixed the problem:
– open the file EZX_dfhkitconf with a text editor
– look at line 25: “China” 560 127 99 16 B 547 48 130 80 hilite 17 544 48
– change the letter B with C.
Now I can delete the cracked version
What you are describing sounds just the way it is intended
to work. If you chose no drum for one position then the
‘substitution scheme’ sets in and sends the MIDI to a
suitable backup.
Btw, I already have a ‘C’ on that line of the kitconf.
Have you updated EZX Dfh to the latest version?

I’m ok with you Olle, the problem was that even if China 1 was set to 20″ Sabian HH Dark Chinese (Ride), no sound came from that cymbal and it triggered China 2 instead.
I did a fresh install, installing ezdrummer first, then the 1.3.3 update, then cocktail, and finally DFH (the latest version).
