Hissing sound, SD3 and fixed sample rate

[Christopher Moros]

Hi. First off I am loving everything about SD3 by...

Hi. First off I am loving everything about SD3 by there are a couple of things I cannot figure out. I am currently playing an a to e drum kit that is triggered with a td12 into a 2013 MacBook Pro via a focusrite Scarlett 2i4. Latency and everything is great but whenever I hit a pad I here a hissing sound that remains until a few seconds after the drum sound is finished.

I have played with different buffer sizes but no change. The sample rate is at 96KHz and I do not see a way to change it. I would like to change it to 44.1KHz to see if it changes anything. I saw something about this in another thread. Can anyone help me with changing the sample rate in SD3?  Thanks in advance.

It would be a mistake to believe that any pre-processed library would not contain any hiss. Or most post-processing for that matter. The producers involved are using their own analogue equipment (mixing board, tube EQs, compressors, limiters, etc.) to get the sounds they need. Analogue hiss is a part of that process and is not really the problem this thread is magnifying it to be.
