Title: gate triggers TD-50 2 times per note (on and off)
Post by: JimmyTheSaint on August 22, 2018, 11:39:39 am

I'm just setting up and testing my BSP, so I apologize if this is question is too newbie, but site search on "gate" didn't turn up a solution. I simply run a lead from one of the drum gates to a trigger in on my Roland TD-50. It triggers as expected at note on, but note off also triggers the drum so that everything is double. How do I ensure the drum only triggers at note on? If it's a setting in my TD-50, I can't find it. I also tried toggling drum gate mode between positive and negative in MCC, but it's still the same result either way.

I tried the firmware 2.0.1.7 as linked to in that thread, but I still have the same problem: the gate triggers with note on when I press the pad, then when I release the pad, the note off also triggers the gate so that every drum sound when using my TD-50's gates gets doubled.

I guess the TD-50 is not triggable with Eurorack gates style.
The TD-50 is part of Roland V-Drum family isn't it? Try using MIDI connection instead.

Yeah, MIDI works fine. I was just trying out all my BSP's capabilities to decide how I'd like to use it.
