How to Choke Roland CY-14C Two Zone Crash in Superior Drummer 3

[ohnow]

Just bought SD3 and new to edrums.  Spent all day and night yesterday downloading.  I have a Roland TD-50 and choking works on all my cymbals.  Also my VH-13 hats play how I like them.  I’m trying to make a user kit with the Pearl drums for heavy rock/metal.  I’ve spent most of today trying to figure out how to choke cymbals and set-up my hats.  For this thread, can anyone give step by step instructions to get my Roland CY-14C cymbal to choke?  The TD-50 has a setting to turn choking on.  I though this was done with aftertouch via a CC but if it is, I can’t find the number.  I haven’t seen any MIDI notes to mute cymbals in the TD-50 module.

I would give me left arm if anyone had a SD3 kit for the TD50 for me to see parameters of the hat, snare, ride and cymbal choking.

I wish I could play with my new toy, but instead, just getting frustrated.  Thanks so much for any help anyone can provide!!!

Does anyone know the CC numbers for the Cymbal choke functions?

I experience random chokes after tracking a TD-27 performance and replaying it in Superior Drummer 3. Can´t find the right midi value or whatever the problem is.

Thx

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.3.6
Operating system: Windows 10

Found it. There is a note ontroller inside the DAW that recognises “pressure” for a midi note.

B2 is triggering a ride edge hit. If, for some reason, there is a high pressure value triggered or accidentally written then the crash will choke.

hope it spares someone some nerves.

Best.
