Though i new that answer to this but my question is:
- I rarely choke crashes, so If I wire up crashes as single zone, do i still need an edge membrane? I was thinking that it's also used for edge sensing vs. bow? and if not used, how does eDrumin deal with no edge membrane?
I'll wire a single zone up again and see what happens
Edge Membranes for Crashes?
Re: Edge Membranes for Crashes?
The edge membrane is use to detect both edge and choke. A single zone crash will only trigger bow and assuming it's set to a mono input or on a splitter, the membrane connection would be completely ignored by eDRUMin, and therefore unnecessary. You might be able to use 'edge sense' with a single zone (mono) crash, but I'll not sure how reliable that would be.

Is the edge sense register and send a specific key hit? Reason I'm asking is Addictive Drums only has Cymbal and Cymbal Choke. What am i gaining using edge sense detection, a shorter decay is Addicative Drums can handle an edge key hit?
sorry this is something i never thought about. Another hmmmmm....
thankx Rob
Re: Edge Membranes for Crashes?
Is this a metal cymbal? Edge sense probably won't work on metal cymbals. Assuming you don't choke your cymbals, then you won't gain anything else when using AD.
Re: Edge Membranes for Crashes?
Use an edge membrane. It's well worth it. I also have a new method for additional damping. I'll post a picture later. Mine work great.
