Choke function diy e-cymbal with MD

[ignotus]

thanks, But what is the range column to select the multimeter to measure this type of sensor?...This should work but it is not the case

Turn it to 2000k. If you have it at 20k and attach something with a resistance greater than 20k, it'll just display a number 1.

I turn it on 2000k and it gives me : 1 when fsr non pressed and 000 or 001 when fsr pressed.

I do what it said here http://www.megadrum.info/content/settin ... One cymbal
except the part about the bell ... as you tell me in my case (dual piezzo)
To make a test I plugged my cymbal on the crash input of the MD.
Back in MDM the Head entry default is to single piezo and in that case I get a sound of crash cymbal emitted from AD, as soon as I put the piezo head on "3 way roland" and the rim piezo on "switch "to activate the choke function I do not have the cymbal sound but a tom sound it is very strange and no choke function and if I put the rim piezo on "single piezo" I have the sound of the crash that is mixing sometime with the sound of a tom but I got to the choke function randomly work ... I don't understand
*Note that I do the test with only the cymbal connected to the MD all other elements of the drum are not connected to the MD.

Why do you set to "3 way roland" when http://www.megadrum.info/content/settin ... one-cymbal suggests to set DualHead to Yes on the bow with a switch Type on the edge?

After multiple adjustments it finally works pretty well, remains a question about the fact that the fsr plays two different notes when it is active, but it does currently not affect its choke's function certainly settings to tweak:

is it possible to keep midi option in MD's memorie because it asks me at every boot to choose the in & output midi option?...

thanks again for your help
