Sure, but why stop at a theoretical discussion when it is so easy to test.
Just record some soft and hard hits in SD3 and check out what velocity
range they span. The thing is that nobody else has complained about
the SD3 samples not being soft enough. I am going to claim that the
odds are in favour of a velocity issue even though you have arguments
against it.
Hi Olle, I wasn’t complaining about the samples at all , actually I think SD3 is fantastic !!. I’ve had more time to mess around with it today. I did a velocity test and was recording hits between 5 and 127 so no problem there. What I did realize was that the kit I was originally testing (Bob Rock) was very hot, probably due to all the compression .
When I tried a few clean kits I found it to be a completely different story and everything was perfect again.
One thing I did find while trying things was that it would be great to be able create VCA faders in the mixer. Great for easily balancing overall kit volume ?
Hi Olle, surely if it was a velocity issue with the midi being sent from the drum module then we would have had the same problem with SD2, but everything was working fine before.
Hi, I had the same problem. I would leave the sensitivity settings as they were on your TD20 and use the ‘soft hit’ slider on the right-hand panel in SD3 to tune in your soft snare hits.
Hope this helps ?
