Pierre-André THUAUHi !O!
Does this only happen for GarageBand ? (if you have other EZX …?)
1) Make sure that the “THRESHOLD” parameters are correct in the module (for this tripping cymbal)
2) As Henrik said, configure MIDI Mapping: MENU – E-Drums – (list) MIDI Mapping. In your case, “Roland” must be selected.
3) Another chose to try to do (it costs nothing but this third point is not a “normal” solution anyway):
-> try to change the selected “kit” of your module.
Try these potential solutions and let me know 🙂
Let the ‘Zic be with U! O!
If necessary:

Pierre-André THUAUHi Hiro 43, I’m sorry for my misunderstanding,
I think you’re talking about “sound” of cymbals and not “rhythm” .
Well, whatever it is, the important thing is that you have found the answer to your waiting 😉
May the music be with you! O!

salut Hiro 43,
Je suis désolé de ma mauvaise compréhension, je pense que vous parlez de “son” de cymbales et de non pas de “rythme”.
Bon, quoi qu’il soit, l’important est que vous ayez trouvé la réponse à votre attente 😉
Que la musique soit avec vous! O!

Thanked by: hiroPierre-André THUAUHi,
I know that the information / proposals that I give will be difficult to verify a priori. It’s as difficult as talking about a good wine!
I mainly based on cymbal diameters and their EZx “ambience”.
for examples :
SOUTHERN SOUL EZX
24″ Zildjian K Light
23″ Zildjian A Sweet
22″ Zildjian K Cus Dry Complex
22″ Zildjian A Vintage 1950s
VINTAGE ROCK
22” Zildjian* A Ride 1950s (Sticks)
20” Zildjian* K Heavy Ride (Brushes)
22” Zildjian* A Ride 1950s (Brushes)
20” Zildjian* K Heavy Ride (Sticks)
ROCK !
22″ AA Classic
22″ Artisan
22″ K Zildjian Constantinople
20″ Zildjian 1960
20″ Zildjian K Heavy
22″ Sabian Prototype
21″ Sabian Handhammered Vintage
+ Sabian Morgan Agren Custom Ride
(Don’t forget that you can tune the pitch for each cymbals 😉 )

Thanked by: hiroPierre-André THUAUHi Christian,
I also have a E-drum Roland (TD-12 but the approach remains valid for other modules I think ), I use the STAND ALONE EZdrummer 2 and here’s what I tried / found by adding a new TOM (Aux 1) and a CYMB (Aux 2).
First, in the Stand Alone: Menu (top right) – Settings – E-Drums; In the new window that has just opened (E-Drums tab), subject Mapping, choose (in our case) “Roland “Do not hesitate also to choose” Generic “(which for me solved other problems on other EZx kits). Try if necessary.
In a second time, if there are still imperfections on this added tom (the skin is ok but the rim shot triggers a cymbal), do not hesitate to scroll the Roland KITs via the module. For me, with my TD-12 module, the optimal setting (everything works correctly regardless of the EZx Kit used) is to choose the Roland KIT “Istanbul CY” (number 25). And here … it’s the best … Hoping that these lines of research will allow you to solve your problem.

Thanked by: Christian1Pierre-André THUAUHi John, Thank you for your answer.
By choosing “ROLAND” in the list (in my case), everything became correct (all the pads create the good sound in EZdrummer 2 Standalone)
2. Now, my next jobs are to adust velocity, new pads/cymbal… in my ROLAND MODULE
But, if needed, is there any way to directly adjust assignments in EZdrummer 2 Stand Alone ?
I noticed that in the software, there was for each element of virtual drum the button “Details” opening a menu showing the “Articulations” (in “Key” or “Note“).
Seeing this information, for me, there must be a specific mapping ” for (in ?) Ezdrummer 2 Stand Alone” (?)
a: Where can I find the mapping “grid” if it exists ?
b: If this is not the purpose of these “Key” and “Note” values, what are they for ?
I am well aware that i’m using EZdrummer 2 Stand Alone as a “drummer” and not a “song creator” (for now … lol).
EZdrummer can do so many things (and very very well (ok… Good User… lol) ) that it seems interesting to me, a drummer, if it’s possible to be able to intervene on these “Articulations” using a mapping grid to assign easily elements of the electronic drum to an element of the virtual drum EZdrummer.
By (good) examples (I think) :
In EZ Drummer, the rim shot of Racktom 1 is identified in the “Articulations” under the key “A # 4”. Okay…
Now, I wish that when I hit the rim shot of Racktom 1 of my electronic drum, it triggers either the sound of rim shot “A # 4” but the sound of rim shot “G # 4”.
I think if there was a “little editor” of “Key” it would become childish to make these changes
This would also be very convenient and easy if you add an extra pad to my electronic drum (on the Aux ports in the module). Well … I hit this new pad and I get the sound corresponding to “X # Y” in EZdrummer. But I want the sound corresponding to the EZdrummer rim shot “G # 4”. In this case, (hop) I use the “little editor of Key” and I modify, for this extra pad, the first obtained value “X # Y” in wished value “G # 4” … and here is the easy work …
Ouch … I was very very long … all my apologies for that and if:
– I “opened an open door”: it already exists in EZdrummer Stand Alone (please read the documentation… lazy boy !! … lol)
OR
– This has already been treated in the forum “page 2,123 of the specific section “your answer here” of 01/04/2012″ … lol (again) …
Thanks a lot !O!

Pierre-André THUAUHi Erik,
I think too. But all answers can provide solution ways to… the Graal… 🙂
Pierre-André THUAUHi ! and thanks to everybody !
I’ve found THE solution (THE because MY solution…lol) and i wish it’ll be THE solution for E-Drummer connected to EZDrummer.
So, it’s very simple :
In EZDrummer 2 software, go to “MENU” then “Settings” and “E-Drums”
Then, in the drop down menu, select the kind of E-Drum you are using (connected to EZDrummer software). In my case it’s Roland.
So… after this selection… all is correct ! : the mapping between pads and EZDrummer sounds is perfect !
What else… 🙂
Pierre-André THUAUHello and many thanks for your answer Barticus B
I agree, there is certainly many ways to solve the problem. I have to try these solutions and find the better one (settings in EZDrummer 2 or/and settings in TD-12 module).
Your solution is to re-assign hits to the appropriate rimshot key in your MIDI editor. By “my MIDI editor”, i understand that you don’t use directly the software EZDrummer 2 but you use a soft like Cubase or EnergyXT for example (?).
I prefer, at first, try all solutions with EZDrummer 2 : re-assign hits in EZDrummer 2 (this way is not obvious at this time : the Operation Manual seems to short)
Thanks again and may Music be with you !O!
