Triggering dual-zone pad rim?

[Rebound779]

Hello,

I suspect this might be a simple issue with a simple solution. But I am stuck. For some reason, I can't figure out how to get the dual-zone pads in my setup to trigger on their rims.

I have an eDrumin 10 with the following pads connected via 6 TRS cables:

- 3 Roland PD-6 single-zone rubber pads
- 1 Roland PD-7 dual-zone rubber pad
- 2 Roland PD-9 dual-zone rubber pads

My PD-6s are triggering on both their heads and their rims with Edge Sense available, which makes sense because I have them set to mono input. This is an awesome feature.

But I can't get the rims of the PD-7 & PD-9s to trigger (even though this worked on my last setup with the same pads and settings).

In the software, for the dual-zone pads that aren't triggering, the "RIM" MIDI note assignment is available to modify, but it never triggers no matter how hard or direct I hit the rim of the pad. This is different from the "SS" MIDI note assignment that appears in the software with my PD-6s set to mono, maybe this might have something to do with it?

I tried my best to troubleshoot. The polarity on the pads is correct, I only have TRS cables, in the eDrumin software I followed the manual and have the dual-zone pads set to stereo input/rubber pad pad type (and I switched these settings before turning on the eDrumin), I tried updating the software and then the firmware, I tried a factory reset, and then I tried switching the pad types to all the other presets but still, no luck.

How do I get my Roland PD-7 & PD-9s to trigger on their rims?

Thank you.

Maybe there's an issue with that pad type. I'll have a look later today.

Any luck?

I just checked. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the 'Rubber Pad' pad type. If you want to investigate this further, send an email to support at audiofront dot net and I'll tell you how you can capture data from your pad so we can have a look at what's going wrong.
