Of course, it’s a good thing to have built in processing, but I cannot help thinking that having to run “multiple instances” is a less than elegant solution to a simple problem. SD2 has comprehensive built in processing, but that didn’t stop you from allowing multiple outputs for the user to decide on his/her processing needs.

The prospect of being able to layer my Toontrack libraries with my other drum samples is an exciting proposition, but this excitement is tempered by the lack of multiple outs.
I’ll have to consider this some more before deciding on my purchase.

Thanks for your response to my question.

Is it true that Beatstation does NOT have multiple outputs? In other words, in Cubase for example, ALL the pads are sent to a main stereo L&R out, with no ability to split the channels for individual processing?

Thanks….

I am getting very unnatural chopping-off of samples when working the pedal…

I too am getting this problem with my Roland TD-3.
The transmitted TD-3 midi data is as follows:

Pedal hat=G#1

Closed hi-hat (bow) = F#1
Open Hi-Hat (bow) = A#1

Open Hi-Hat (Edge) = A#-1
Closed Hi-Hat (Edge) = D0

Hats foot controller = cc4

How should these notes be mapped to the various S 2.0 articulations for the hi-hats to achieve a smoother, more realistic response?

EDIT:
OK, i think I’ve got it. I’ve mapped all the “hits” (apart from pedal hat) to hatsTrig and that seems to work.
I think the problems I’m experiencing are to do with the calibration of the Roland FD-8 foot controller. It’s tough to get a “lightly opened” sound.
Time to spend some more cash I think!
