It might be a good idea the report which snares you are using and which one in the stack is the culprit. This way toontrack may be able to track a rogue hit which is much higher in volume and fix it.

I don’t know if this helps much but I can attach some screenshots of what I’m working with.

Here are the 2 snares I am using, but remember that I had this problem even with JUST the first one:

8×14″ Ludwig Coliseum (from Core Library)

4×14″ Ludwig Black Beauty 20s (from Core Library)

some additional details is that I am allowing some snare bleed from the first rack tom. Not a lot, it’s actually at -13db. I was just replicating something from a Dave Weckl video. The overheads have snare bleed too, but still reduced by 5db. I have no bus processing or anything from Superior Drummer itself. I will also attach the screenshot of the MIDI and I will highlight the exact problem note.

In terms of replicating it consistently, kind of hard to do where it’s exact every time. I can only tell you that when I play this exact MIDI pattern, it will happen usually once within every 5 plays. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the big volume increase twice in a row though, if that helps. It seems to be every 4-5 hits.

Hi Hayden,

Cant offer any help on this but was intrigued by that you have in top right of first 2 screen shots. Is that an SD3 function or from your DAW (or something else) ? Thanks, Andrew

It’s just the Mixer Track shortcuts for plugins used on FL Studio 20.
