Td-30 and SD3 together are very quiet.

[spitakiss]

Hey there. I’ve got a Roland TD30 and have just started using SD3 as its own track on Logic Pro x. The sounds are great when I click the drums individually with my mouse; however, when I try to play using the midi pads the sound is soft. It doesn’t sound much like the sounds when I click them individually with my mouse either.

im sure there’s a fix to this, I’m just not too great with tech stuff!
thank you in advance

Hi,

when you click the drums in the interface with your mouse, it produces a full velocity hit, i.e. the hardest hit you can produce with the drums.

If you feel playing the pads are yielding too soft hits, please first check your module for adjusting the velocity curves. If that’s not enough or what you are after, please check the MIDI In/E-drums settings page and custom edit the TD-30 preset to adjust the Velocity Curve in SD3.

You can also boost the incoming MIDI on the actual instrument on the Drums page.

As with everything you custom edit, please remember to save what you do as Presets; MIDI Preset, Velocity curve Preset, Project, etc.

BR,
John
