Yamaha DTXplorer DFH2.0

[Monster]

Hello 🙂

I was just wondering if anyone could give me any ideas in upgrading my foot controller to get the most out of DFH2.0

At present the module/foot control only communicates 3 CC04 values when the pad is hit in these ranges – 0,52,127. Its not a deal breaker as i can adjust the midi later but what would i need to replace to get more linear sounds? The brain or just the foot pedal?

Also can anyone tell me at what value ranges with CC04 correlates to the openess of sounds in DFH? Seems like their is 5 distinct ranges but at what point do they crossover and can that be adjusted?

Many Thanks

Hi – the crossover points depend on library but generally speaking the close sounds trigger with values above 120 and the most open one with values under 10. Divide in between to have a rough reference scale.

… the main problem I see with the values sent by your module is that a value of 127 triggers ‘Tight’ articulations so you indeed would not be getting regular closed sounds with the above. The workaround would be for you to select the HatsTrig articulation (‘edit articulation only’) in S2 and lower the ‘Hard’ velocity value to 125. This effectively will put the ‘tight’ samples off limits.

Alternatively you could set the Tight articulations layers populations to 0-0-0 but the above is much faster to perform and will do the trick equally well.
