Hi-hat won’t work with Addictive Drums 2

[Tim]

I have an eDrumIn 10 triggering Addictive Drums 2 on a MacBook.

I have metal, low-volume triggered Diamond drum hi-hats with a Roland VH-10 hi-hat controller.

I can only get closed hi-hat notes.

I can’t get slightly open, 1/2, 3/4 or fully open hi-hat sounds to trigger. I tried to auto-calibrate with no success.

Any suggestions for trigger and pad settings? I appreciate the help!

Can you post screenshots of your settings for the pedal and the cymbal?

Hello,

Here is a picture of my settings as I play the hi-hat closed.

No sound happens in any other hi-hat position.

Sorry, I’m learning as I go. I appreciate the help!

How about a screenshot for the hihat pedal?

[Tim]

Hello,

Attached is a screenshot of my hi-hat pedal settings with the hi-hat pedal pressed down and the hi-hat closed.

I’m using a Roland VH-11 controller and Addictive Drums 2 on a MacBook.

I appreciate the help!

Hi,

To make your life easier with screenshots, I suggest the following link:

I'm seeing a few issues with your setup, but I think you should update to the latest version before getting into the details.

After updating, watch this video to understand how to set things up.

The last thing I'll mention is that Addictive drums expects the hihat openness CC to be reversed, so you'll likely need to enable the "Reverse CC" option.

That worked, thank you! I still have to dial everything in, but it’s much better.
