Hi-Hat settings

[andy1974]

Hello,

I`m trying now EZ-2 with my excellent e-drums MARK DRUM YES. I have a problem with Hi-hat, which is working the other way around (is opened when closed and closed when opened :-) I chose Generic option with CC4 HH. I have been trying to set all midi notes to open and close hihat in module and its steel inverted. Could you help me ? I use EZ-Drummer2 solo.

Hi Andy,

Did you manage to solve this? I’m using Mark drum Yes as well but I can only get a closed sound or open sound. I can’t figure out how to map the kit in a way that it recognises when the HiHat is open

Just posting an update – hopefully Andy1974 will see this – because I just had a massive breakthrough.

It’s not a completely ideal fix, but one option is to disable the hi-hat control change within the Mark Drum module ( You do this by selecting HI-HAT; MIDI; ENABLE_HH_CTRL_CH; OFF) and selecting the Generic Controller (no cc) preset in EZDrummer.

This way you get a closed, open, chick and a very good bark sound. The various stages of open-ness are missing but it’s a million times better that the alternative.

It’s also worth tinkering with the trigger and Midi gain options in the module. I thought the hi-hat was missing hits but I just needed to adjust the parameters.

I’ll update again is I ever figure out an option for using CC4
