Odd snare drum behaviour

[John M]

My snare drum is a 10" A2E conversion, with ZED 2 ply mesh head and Triggera Intrigg sensor. When I play single, steady strokes it works fine. When I play faster I get several instances of the the snare hits decreasing in volume when I hit the drum harder.. weird! I'm also struggling to find a setting that comes close to capturing ghost notes.

I've got two toms with the same mesh head and sensor setup. They both work great. I've tried swapping one of the toms in place of the snare, thinking there may have been a problem with the snare drum sensor, but I get exactly the same inconsistent volume and lack of ghost notes. Any suggestions?

So copy the tom settings and paste to the snare.

Tried that. No joy.

I've just configured a 13" drum as snare, in place of the 10" and there's been a huge improvement... ghost notes and double stroke rolls etc are now working great.

I guess my mesh head/trigger combo suits the larger diameter! I found it impossible to get a similar snare response with the 10" drum.
