I’m struggling with the same issue, but the video above does not help b/c I just got the Alesis Nitro kit and I can’t find which # its pedal/foot CC control is using. I’ve searched everywhere online, the Nitro manual, the Nitro e-kit screen itself, and am currently on hold with Alesis on the phone.

Alesis’s current pedal/foot CC control can’t be CC4 because the struggle I’m having is that the SD3 Hi-hat and Snare calibrations are not working.

So I’m wondering, is there some way in SD3’s settings to change the “assigned Hi-Hat Pedal CC Control” to be a different number other than 4?

I’ve attached a picture and I’ve tried this approach so far: In SD3’s MIDI In/E-drum settings > choose Alesis Nitro as the preset > on the Mapping tab, over on the left in the dropdown “Show = Hi-Hat Pedal CC” > over on the right (still in the Mapping tab), change the blue number (e.g., 44) to be all sorts of different numbers (so far I’ve tried numbers 1-48) > click Learn > push the pedal up & down > this populates the “CC44 | Hi-Hat Pedal CC Control | Map” row that’s currently highlighted in blue > then I go over to the Hi-Hat Pedal tab and try to calibrate with that CC44 row highlighted > but the pedal openness bar still does not go up or down, so it’s not registering.

Other info, Alesis Nitro’s “MIDI Note Number” triggers are: Hi-Hat Open (46), Hi-Hat Half-Open (23), Hi-Hat Closed (42), Hi-Hat Pedal (44), Hi-Hat Splash (21)

I’m struggling with the same issue, but on an Alesis Nitro, in Logic Pro 10.2. Neither the “Pedal Openness” nor the “Snare Hit Position” bar go up & down, no matter what I try.

I hear the sounds perfectly in my headphones (they are matched to whatever kit I choose in SD3), the MIDI e-drum Analyzer settings are working, the sensitivity is all set perfectly on each pad (which I set up on the Alesis screen). And as I gradually bring the hi-hat pedal up and down, the transition sounds super smooth in my headphones. But the main issue is that when I record hi-hat, the MIDI data is only capturing 3 notes total. Hi-Hat Open, Hi-Hat Half Open, Hi-Hat Closed. So this is a huge problem, because I’d want the captured data to take advantage of SD3’s amazing levels of hi-hat openness (tight, closed, open1, open2, open3, open4, open5, open6)

The Alesis manual says its triggers are:
Hi-Hat Open: 46
Hi-Hat Half-Open: 23
Hi-Hat Closed: 42
Hi-Hat Pedal: 44
Splash: 21

Did anyone have any luck with troubleshooting this yet?
