    Hi,

    if I understand you correctly, you select the instrument with the stack to “reveal” the stack on the DRUMS page and then you right-click the stacked drum and select ‘Remove from Stack’.

    Removing the instrument from the stack removes it from all MIDI notes that trigger the stack. So that’s not gonna work.

    I want a specific instrument in the stack to only be triggered by particular MIDI notes. For example, MIDI note 38 = snare center stack. MIDI note 69 = snare center stack plus a snare with lots more ring.

    I’m starting to suspect that you inadvertently crippled a core flexibility of SD2 in replacing MIDI nodes with drum stacks. I hope I’m wrong. To fully translate MIDI nodes to stacks, you need to allow us to modify the stacks by MIDI note.

    I suppose in the meantime I could delete the extra instrument from the stack, add a new drum to the kit and assign it to the other MIDI note, and then edit the MIDI performance itself to hit those 2 notes simultaneously when I want that variation in the sound. But please let me know if there’s a way to edit drum stacks by MIDI note.

    PS – In trying that, I realized another helpful SD2 feature that may be missing from SD3: ability to audition drums in the mixer window without turning on my MIDI controller and playing. SD2 kept a little audition pad in the bottom right corner. Very useful for auditioning the effect of adjusting bleed, for example.
