Okay, check this out. I am in the process of recording a demo. While I was playing a few songs on my DELICATELY tuned kit I noticed that 1 out of every 3 or 4 notes played on my snare sounded strange. When I stopped playing and just hit my snare alone it was fine. Then, when I hit any other pad and snare together repeatedly every couple of hits sounded very trebly. Kinda like the sound of the snares rattling is extremely emphasized just loud and nasty. If you hit the snare repeatedly by itself it has a very consistent sound and it should be consistent because I am hitting the rim of a pd-120, in the exact same spot with the same dynamic. If I go and shut down the compression, this problem dissapears. I spoke to guys at roland and they setup a kit with my settings and were able to hear what I was talking about. they suggested that the problem was due to positional sensing on the pd-120. They suggested I remove the positional sensing capabilities of my snare by changing the pad type to 12B in my trig settings. I'm not sure about this though. I think the problem is the compressor. I do have the snare heavily compressed, but it should be consistent.
Here are my settings if your interested:
snare: piccolo3 on head
pco3rim on the rim.
It is brass/3.5in coated head, tuning 1, no muffle and loose tension on the snares.
compression:
threshold:-35
ratio infin:1
attack: 2.0
release: 200
output: +2
try hitting that drum and any other trigger at the same time repestedly, you'll see what I mean.
Let me know what you guys think.
