So the two toms are programmed to strike at the same time in the grid editor however both floor toms have their own separate grid and are marked as ‘floor Tom left” and ‘floor tom right’. The channels for both of these floor toms are separated, the microphone they are sharing is the overheads and there is only this phasing effect when then the grid is programmed for them to strike together at high velocity.

If I switch to any other floor tomorrow, this doesn’t occur.

So I tried to start the set up from scratch to just in case I had missed something or unwittingly hit a parameter that I was unaware of. I removed and replaced the instruments, completely unedited and I always get phase if I load two floor toms that are twinned 16×18  floor toms by pearl masterworks. However, if I load a different floor tom, there is no phase/comb filtering? Weird that I can’t match these two floor toms together? I should reiterate that it isn’t a mild amount of phase, either, you can hear it completely clean already but any kind of compression applied renders the set up unusable which is disappointing as otherwise it sounds quite pleasing to my ears.

Surely there must be others out there who have loaded these two floor toms together and have had the same issue?

Thank you for your assistance. I appreciate the community in the forums here and the willingness to take the time help.

thank you for your answer.

 

There are two tons routed to different channels, I one left and the other right. On the grid editor when they are “played” at the same time, I get this phase sound. Does this sound like it could still be playing the same MIDI?

I’m very sorry about all of the flood of messages here however I have discovered that it is indeed the toms that are phasing. But they only cause phase when the two floor toms are both played at the same time. If they are played individually, then there isn’t any phase occurring in the overheads :/

Again, I’m not using ANY eq, compression or time based FX and have the single overhead ribbon microphone on solo mode.

Any idea what this could be? The toms are designed to be exact replicas of each other… Could it be possible that since they’re making the same kind of wave form that this is where the phase is occurring?

[BloodPremonitions]

The room microphones and ambient ribbon microphones are phasing everything that is being sent to that channel: so the two floor toms just have absolute piles of phasing on them, particularly on the tail. :/

No cymbals either?I really don’t understand how the ribbon mic could have phase on it if I’m just solo’ing that channel?

I am using SD3 standard, no expansions.

The two channels that have phase are dynamic overheads and ambient ribbon. And when I say phase, it is really quite extreme.

My set up is also very simple: 1 kick drum and two floor toms.

[BloodPremonitions]

The phase is still on the overheads regardless of whether the button on the channel is turned on or off.

Thank you for your answer.

The channels with phase on them are overheads and an ambient room mic.

Please fix this!

And also the fact that when you “paste” in the midi editor, it only ever pastes midi notes on the same line which you copied from so the function of copying/pasting in the editor is basically a useless one. I love the sounds of this program but god damn it is deeply over shadowed by the sluggish editing. I mean… Not being able to rearrange tracks in the mixer? Really? Why? This program cost a lot of money and this is a very basic feature that could be quickly amended with an update!
