Did you see Hihat pedal icon on the left side of the UI? Click that and you can make adjustments to MIDI Note assignments for your hihat controller.

Yes, but I can put any note I want it changes nothing, because in Kontakt I have to choose the hihat articulation "open control" for tip and for edge. Like said in the video, to have the pedal working.
I think it's an Abbey Road mapping Issue.

Just bought a roland vh10 and abbey drums , and now see this .. so is hihat in Abbey Road not supported due to a cc/note mapping issue? There's a link here https://www.vdrums.com/forum/advanced/v ... at-mapping that seems to suggest you need something transforming the cc to midi notes before the vst. Im using reaper not cubase. Just checking this is all true and and that there's not a how to someone's done already .. bit of a pain but if true seems to be abbey road issue really

Check out version 1.5, which is still in BETA but already very stable. It has a Hihat Levels mode that will play nicely with Kontakt.

Ah right .. 'There is now a new hihat mode called ‘Levels’. With this mode, you define up to 8 levels of openness, with separate BOW, EDGE, and BELL notes associated with each level. The transitions between levels are all user adjustable. ' wicked, cheers

BTW, if you let me know the default MIDI assignment s for the hihat, I'll add an Abby Road drum map.

Great. I've added an Abby Road hihat drum map for the next build. I really appreciate getting that information from you. I'm willing to add maps for the rest of the kit pieces, too if that information is available.
