I got a spllitter w/ 2 seperate CY-8 crash cymbals into # 1 dual mono input and seperate midi #'s,calibrated each one and it works ok,but one cymbal I really have to wack pretty hard to get sound,how do I get that one to play easier,this is a miracle I got this far. I don't see any way to save these but auto-save,no map all custom notes

I wouldn't rely on the calibration function to get your pads triggering well. Have a look at this video.

Hi Rob,I've seen that before and after getting the ED8 and I can't seem to make it work but I did try the Hart ecymbal2 hi-hat stand I had with the TRS pedal jack and that seems to light up alot on the pedal page,I just did everything on auto so I could at least get that going.I need help to stop the splash stutter.Thanks Rob for vacation advice

I suspect you are using a splitter designed for Roland modules that has a built in resistor that bleeds some of the ring single into the tip connection. That kind of splitter cable will not work well eDRUMin modules.
