I know what you mean and I’m 10 years younger. I’m a multi instrumentalist too but primarily a drummer and producer. Totally out of action at the moment as my house has sold and all my kit is in storage. I’m hoping to get somewhere I can build a studio as opposed to just a room in the house.

Use multi outputs. SD3 will do 32 channels. Add the outputs in sd3 and then route to them as you like. You can then mix in the DAW. You can even render in the DAW (if yours allows it) then you have 32 tracks of audio.

Yes it’s just the hi hat. And it’s not really a problem. The same restriction will also be the same in AD.

Premier, Pearl, Yamaha kits from the core library give you the more modern sound and you can choose whichever snare you like. Go for a dry preset for the most natural sound. I’ve used the premier kit quite a bit when we were creating services online during covid lockdown.

If the td17 only sends up to 89 then that is the range you will get 0-89 and nit 0-127 that you can’t change. Moving the calibration points around will still give you a decent playing range. You can’t however have full 127 range as the module is just not generating it.

Record what the module outputs for the hi hat and check what cc is being used, what note values are being used. You shouldn’t have to map every articulations.

Can’t you substitute fills from another section or just paste a rhythm? If not then you really are giving yourself a massive job, as matching sounds and getting it to sound right, will take a lot of work. Well unless you go in a different direction and do something completely different for the fills.

You can open a kit and swap out any kit pieces and then save as a preset. What exactly are you missing? These kits are recorded in different spaces and work best if played from the same library. These are real kits!

You can map manually without having to wait.

I use Cubase and keep all my midi in Cubase. If I use tracker I create all the replacements in sd3. I then enable midi out in sd3 (also set midi in to none) and record the output to a midi track in Cubase. SD3 has to be set to follow host when playing back to record. Works for me and doesn’t take much time to setup. I really can’t be bothered with the tempo map thing and this works just as well with much less hassle.
When recorded onto a midi track just drop the midi onto the sd3 midi track or another instance of sd3. I always turn off midi out afterwards as well.

What ekit are you using? I don’t really want to download the video.

The above works. I have sd2 installed for the very same reason.

Yes that’s the way to do it, as you can’t duplicate note numbers on different components. Glad you got it sorted.

There are different things you can save in sd3. Project will save everything. Preset will save the kit. In edrum settings you can save your own midi mapping. What are you trying to save?
