Hi Damian!

As I wrote, I’m totally new to e-drums but I just need one thing to work and that is center hits and rimshots on my snare. I have done factory reset on my Roland TDW-20 module and I have a TD-20 kit (pads). That is a Roland PD125 as snare. As you wrote I get rim shots when I hit the center hard, something above 110 in velocity. I DO NOT want that. I want center hits when I play center hits and then rim shots when I play rim shots. I downloaded your Cubase project file and saved that as a MIDI mapping preset. I just have Metal Foundry installed but perhaps your Cubase project won’t work with that library? I’ve searched this forum and the Vdrums forum and googled but nowhere I can find how to set up for proper realistic snare response with center hits by themselves and then rim shots by themselves. I want my snare to work as a real snare.

Cheers and any help appreciated! Please, if you know a forum thread with answers to my questions, please give me the link. I’ve searched the forums but can’t find anything yet I know it must be there!!!

Sylco!

Your videos is EXACTLY what I want to achieve. I’m a total newbie to e-drums and bought a Roland TD-20 with the expanded module TDW-20 little more than a week ago. Right now I can’t get my snare to trigger in a natural way with head strokes with center and rim shot. Also if I hit a hard center stroke I get a rim shot. Is there any way you could describe your modules MIDI send settings and the SD2 settings to achieve what’s in your videos?

Cheers,
Peter Wildoer
