EZ Drummer 2 can not fix your problem. Go into your Alesis Crimson II kit manual and look up Trigger Settings. And change the current pad articulation (rim shot for example) that is not triggering correctly to the appropriate note for the EZ Drummer 2 articulation. The appropriate notes can be found in my screen cap. This is a common workflow.

Alesis may use numbers as midi notes…

You didn’t mention whether your changed the v-drum setting to Alesis or not. You could try that first….

I am using the Alesis E-Drum Setting. There is the Alesis DM-10 setting but I am using just the Alesis selection

I will have a tinker with the control module settings.

I am fairly new to this Midi stuff but from what I can see, each Midi trigger does only one thing. Is that correct? I want to be able to set it so that if the snare hit and the rim hit come through together to trigger the rimshock event. Is that even possible?

I assume you mean rimshot, not rimshock.

Each midi trigger (zone) does one thing. Multiple triggers can be in one vdrum pad that you’re hitting, most snares have an outerzone that would trigger the rimshot. I can only speak for the products I use, but I doubt you would hit both inner and outer zones at the same time to create a rimshot.

According to the manual of your head unit there is a Snare Rim note. SO if the snare pad that is plugged into your head unit has more than one zone to hit, you’re all set to hit either the center of your pad, or the side of our pad.
