Problem VU meter and channel

[Maylord.war]

Hi guys


sorry what is the corresponding channel of the active vu meter in the line below? ( i have posted my picture)


i have connected the piezo on the pin number 8 on the megadrum (the lcd show me which vu meter is active), and in the PDF schematics 56imput megadrum the pin 8 is "HiHat Edge"

On superior drummer 2.0 this channel not work and no sound

but when i try to change the midi number note in the megadrum i go to "Ch03 HiHatE" and the sound not change...


where is the problem?

i try with kick , ride, all toms and snare channel and work good , no problem..


thanks and sorry for my english

From the description it is hard to judge what problem you are having.
The second bottom VU meter is for HiHat Edge input.

Hi dmitri


the problem is on the channel, the channel 03 HiHat edge not responding at the setting of this channel...

Where is possible to get the firmware for re-flashing in my atmega?

My megadrum is original with original crystal and is 56imput kit.

Sorry, but I still don't understand what you mean by "not responding at the setting of this channel" ?

Sorry for my explanation,

I mean that when I go to Channel 3 (Edge hihat) and try to change sound or any other parameter or threshold parameters are not responding on my piezo.

For example, "midi notes 38" snare is snare drum center trigger, if i change this number sounds do not change the map and not change the sound..


Thanks for the link, now i will try to reflashing the firmware.

Sorry with original megadrum what is the correctly crystal setting for load the firmware? 12 mhz or 20mhz?

thanks

What type is your pad/cymbal?
Is your HiHat connected to the right input?
What are all the settings of the HiHat Bow and Edge channels?
Do you get MIDI signals when you hit the HiHat edge?
What MIDI messages do you get when you hit the HiHat edge?
Do you have a pedal connected?
Is you pedal properly configured? If your pedal is not properly configured/connected MegaDrum may think that the pedal is pressed so it will use notes from HiHat pedal settings for semi/half/closed positions.

Basicly, the less information you provide the less likely the problem can be understood and the less likely I or anybody else will be able to help.

For example, "midi notes 38" snare is snare drum center trigger, if i change this number sounds do not change the map and not change the sound..

So the SnareH input doesn't work either just as HiHat?

Sorry with original megadrum what is the correctly crystal setting for load the firmware? 12 mhz or 20mhz?

It must match the frequency of your Atmega crystal.

Hi


no i have just finished the box for megadrum and i try to test all imput ( the first 32 )


I test with DIY pad with mesh head and foam cone because now i have only this pad.


No the hihat pedal not is connected, i will try to make a controller with Hall effect sensor

Yes i have midi signal, the led turn on and the vu meter show me the velocity of hit

No the channel of snare works good, no problem. The snare drum " midi note" in previous post is for example


for reset all factory the megadrum i need to re flashing the firmware or is possible in some operation or settings?

If "AutoLoad Conf" is NOT set to Yes, MegaDrum starts with default settings after powering up.
