Forgive me if this has been asked before. I did some searches and could not find anything. I just purchased an eDrumin 10 and love it. I have one area that I can’t solve. Originally, I was using a Roland TD-20 and a Roland TD-8 with the TD-8 midi out going to the TD-20, midi in and the TD-20 midi out going to my computer, running Superior Drummer 3. I’ve eliminated the TD-8, and now the TD-20 midi out goes to the eDrumin 10 midi in, and then to my computer. I have 2 hi-hat pads. Originally, I had one going to the TD-20 and one going to the TD-8. I have a Roland FD-7 pedal, which was connected to the TD-20 in the first setup. With that setup, the foot pedal would control both hi-hat pads with no issue. Now I have the pedal connected to the eDrumin 10, with one pad connected to the TD-20 and one to the eDrumin 10. The pad connected to the eDrumin 10 works fine. The pad connected to the TD-20 only triggers the open note and edge notes. The pedal has no effect on the pad notes. What do I need to do to have the hi-hat pedal control both hi-hat pads? Both pads are set to the same bow and edge midi notes.

I’ve successfully used 2 hi hat triggers (with a single pedal and also each with their own pedal), but I did this with both triggers and pedals going through ED10s. There might be some trigger/pedal interaction within the module that is important for a hi hat, not sure. Maybe try routing both hi hat triggers through the ED10.
Also carefully watch the midi notes/channels as they come in to SD3 from the triggers/modules and correlate them to the midi note assignments in the hi hat instruments.
Here is the forum post describing how I made it work:

I figured out the issue. Roland pads use trigger input #7 as the hi-hat input. The hi-hat pedal is tied to that input. As long as you have the hi-hat pad in input #7 it is waiting to be controlled by the linked controller input. If you have your hi-hat controller connected to the dDrumin 10 like I’m doing, the trigger in input #7 on my TD – 20 isn’t controlled by the pedal. I moved the pad to another trigger input and now it works fine.
