tdw1 & acupad help

[[email protected]]

I use the TD10 with Hart Dynamics pads, today I added the TDW1 card....at first I had no cymbal volume, after trying everything I could think of, and finally a call to Roland, it was determained that the trigger sensitivity was now to low, was at 6, now at 24. I forgot how much time I spent adjusting triggers and crosstalk and such. I am using 10A for toms and cymbals, 12A for Acusnare, p7b for hat and p9b for one pd9 pad that is used for a cymbal. Anyone else using my type of gear , what are you using for trigger sensitivity. I am having a very hot snare problem...it's not exactly double triggering, but if you do a smooth quarter note roll, certain notes seem to jump out and / or sound distorted. I feel fried, I was expecting to love it right away, instead it's a major headache. I would appreciate some help. ps....I don't have ..didn't use a backup card

Hey Rob,

Try to get in touch with the Hart people. Roland does not test their modules with other pads, so I would definitely recommend reaching Hart for advice; at least they test their products with other modules and they are in a better position to help you. I wish I could help more, but I don’t use the TD-10 with my Hart pads/snare/cymbals, however my TD-8 works like a charm with Hart products, which means nothing to you at this time.

Good luck.

thanks szvook....everything was fine with my normal td10, I guess I forgot how much time I spent tweaking and trying and changing things around, cripes, one TDW1 later and I'm in a tailspin. You are right , I guess Hart is my best bet for advice.

Yeah, the TDW1 will do that – unfortunately. Hart people have been doing a lot of testing on the Roland TD’s (8&10) and they most definitely will have some answers.

I had the same problem. Check your pad settings. When I added the TDW1 it changed them all and had to reset them to where they were before and with alittle sensitivity tweeking things worked very well.
