I've tried everything once I seem to get it right. I save it and it seems to change from time to time. I've now gone back to using acoustic symbols and high hat. Because I just can't get things right. My biggest problem with the high hat is when you open it and Closed I can't seem to get A smooth transition from closed to open I'm pulling my hair out over this.Because I wanna use the set in its full potential Do I actually need to go into easy drummer to use their parameters? I'm not very technical, so this stuff is really hard for me. If you're in my area in Jacksonville, Florida, I would even pay for somebody to come and actually help me do this.
@ClayFunk3 ай бұрын
Question, have you played with the pedal offset under triggers? If not, I would spend a few minutes thereby spending the wheel and seeing if that helps. Sounds like the offset is different from what you are hearing or feelings.

Strata prime uses a hall effect sensor to read a magnet's position. It is much more of a linear signal and more responsive than a FSR (force-sensitive resistor) which the Strike Pro SE uses. The only downside is that a hall-effect sensor is active in that it requires power (generally 5v) to operate where a FSR is passive and requires no additional power. I've created an arduino solution that allows a hall-effect sensor with the Stirke Pro SE and it is worlds better.

This is a valid question and good topic. I agree. I’m a Roland kind of guy so I don’t have the Strike anymore but I think definitely for Alesis Strike owners they should have made a new firmware to make the new hats compatible with the Strike. But if you want a new hat maybe try some of the Roland Hi Hats, Drum Tec, or GoEDrum. There’s some great off brand companies out there as well.

Only thing you may run into is zoning. You might not get 3 zone on certain things unless you switch over to 3 zones.
@The0nlyy8 ай бұрын
I have the Strike Pro and the hi-hat is absolutely garbage imo. I’ve tried messing around in the settings but can’t get it to sound right. The volume for closed and open doesn’t match. And it does not function like an actual hi-hat at ALL when opening / closing it. My ride bell also stopped working less than a year into owning the kit. And my mesh bass drum head got a hole from my plastic beater within a year as well. To fix that I put Evan’s patches on the front AND back of the replacement head and it’s holding up much better now.
@ClayFunk8 ай бұрын
Have you messed with the VEL (velocity) setting 99=soft and 0=loud many people miss that one. The Strata is not going to work with the SE which is a disappointment. One would’ve thought Alesis would invest into the former flagship. So we would have to spend $1600 + instead of make upgrades.

Hopefully a very long time from now due to my facility and playing, I rely on rebounding versus burying the stick into the drum below the surface (when you see drum heads with dents) that’s from drummer playing below the surface.

How do you like your strike kit? I had a nitro mesh then upgraded to a crimson 2 SE. It's a great kit but it has a few shortcomings like the snare occasionally double triggering, the bass pad not being sensitive at lower dynamics, the ride bell zone having a very small sweet spot, and the cymbal chokes having very specific grab points. Part of me wants to upgrade again to the strike pro, another part of me wants to just give up on alesis and go Roland.

Sound like you just need to make adjustments to settings to person taste. As mentioned in my psychology of electric drumming video. One must become one in the electronic ecosystem. Acoustics will never be electric and electric will never be an acoustic. Hope that helps! 🙏🏾
