    Hi Michael,

    Click on the tom drum in SD3 and check the mic routing.

    Look at the mixer tab in SD3 and check the fader level and the output channel.

    Then if you are using multi output, check the input on your DAW tom track to see that it corresponds to the output from the mixer in SD3.

    Hope this helps

    Thanks Rodney, I really appreciate you taking the time and effort! I think I may have resolved the issue. I don’t know why this wasn’t an issue on my other kits other than Avatar (apart from the fact that there are more toms within the Avatar kit) or why it became an issue on Avatar when it hadn’t been before but I had all the toms routed from a channel 11-12 that I assigned in SD to 11-12 within pro tools; that was my set up when some times the signal came through my DAW channel (most times not). I tried assigning all 5 toms in Avator to separate channels in SD3, i.e., 11-12, 13-14, 15-16, 17-18 and 19-20 and then routing to 5 mono aux’s for each of the toms in PTs instead of one stereo one. That seems to have done the trick. Now each of those separate tom channels is showing and playing a signal where as in the initial stereo set up there was no signal in the overall / all encompassing 11-12 channel in PT… only being heard in the overhead channel. I’m not sure if this is clear to those reading it and I’m far from being knowledgeable in this area but if my troubled experience with this helps others, that would be great. Thanks again for your assistance!! Be well,

    Michael

    Good to hear you managed to sort it.

    I usually set up a multi output x16 SD3 drum template. It takes a bit of time and I always find myself going back into it and tweaking it.

    As you mentioned, it is really good to have each tom on a separate channel to get separation across the stereo field.

    Regards
