GGD (GetGood Drums) - MODERN & MASSIVE Dream Kit FIX (for e-drums)

This vid shows another GGD fix and what e-drummers can get out of
"MODERN & MASSIVE" with my DREAM KIT FIX.
A "Modern & Massive" kit does not feature many kit pieces by default.
So the e-drumming fun may be significantly increased by adding more kit pieces!...
All you will hear in this vid is the M&M pack exclusively. There are no other sounds added. Also, the sound basically is M&M default kit (default kit piece models and default hihat pedal curve).

Hihat Fix:
Features:
Variable CC Hihat: adjustable stage levels + open sound issue when closing quite softly.
(the issues:
1.: when using the Variable Hihat ("CC") you won't be able to adjust the volume of single/certain open/closed stages/articulations.
2.: when closing the hihat quite softly it won't mute instantly (unwanted fade out). (You will notice that the "Pedal Chick" doesn't mute the open sound instantly - there is this unwanted short "Fade Out" which prevents open-closed hihat-playing fun.) This is fixed now!
CUSTOM hihat curve: play a high detailed pedal translation of YOUR choice (as the GGD curve tool is of course limited) - (not shown in this vid)
separated BOW -- EDGE - articulations for Variable-CC Hihat! :
(the issue:
there are no dedicated BOW and EDGE articulations by default: both are merged within the only available articulations. (You will see that in default state the played low velocity triggers the BOW articulations and the harder hits trigger the EDGE articulations : NoGo for e-drumming.))
My workaround fixes this for your 2-zone hihat pad: all 7 BOW and all 7 EDGE stages can be played as a "Variable CC Hihat" now!)
further miscelaneous fixes --- check the descriptions
I also show the M&M DEFAULT HIHAT STATE for comparison:
i.e. how both articulations (BOW + EDGE (resp. all BOW stages + all EDGE stages)) are merged within the only available articulations in DEFAULT state:
the played lower velocities trigger the BOW articulations and the harder hits trigger the EDGE articulations.
In order to demonstrate the M&M DEFAULT state my hihat pad is set to behave like a MONO pad.
---
Snare Fix:
separated CENTER vs. RIMSHOT ( + Sidestick)
The high velocity CENTER sounds will be played when hitting hard ( = no Rimshots on the center head) - vs.- the Rimshots will be available on the snare pad's rim (also the "Sidestick" with a velocity border, if you like)
---
Cymbal Choking Fix:
you will be able to manually choke all the Cym sounds (except the Ride sound) by choking any of your crash cym pads (even choking the hihat can achieve this if you like).
The Ride pad will exclusively choke the Ride sound and won't affect Crashes/Splash/China (unless you route the choke functionality also to dedicated Crashes/Splash/China)
MUTE TAIL Cymbal Choking Fix:
"Mute Tail" articulations are now triggered on Choking!
( just like SuperiorDrummer3 handles cym chokes )
I've integrated the tail of the available choke articulations into my GGD Cymbal Choking FIX :
--- so from now on you can have this as an additional option and it makes cym choking sound totally natural.
Of course the "Mute Tail" part is triggered by the same velocity as the main Crash/Splash/China articulation hit, so it sounds super authentically!
---
Adding Toms:
add up to two (!) TomToms + and also up to two Floor Toms (so you can have even more toms than featured by default with the INVASION kit Tom setup)
Here I feature 7 (!) (seven) toms using only the MODERN & MASSIVE pack.
I achieve a suitable and authentical tom panning. And as you can see and hear the additional Toms fit really well and the M&M High Tom is high enough now! So just make seven (!) out of three!
---
Double Bassdrum Sound Fix:
play a DoubleBassdrum feel with alternating Kick sounds
...and toggle the kickdrum engine (Single-Sound vs. Double-Sound) after your needs while playing (by pad stroke)
---
Adding X-HAT(s)
---
Adding a second Snare
---
Adding a left China and a right Splash
---
Adding a second Snare

ENJOY!

Do you know the way to achieve a choke on a crash cymbal by hand, how is the setting done?

[@reggaerock]

So how do you achieve this? I can't get my hihats to respond properly for life of me

locked in man. thank you for the dedication. any idea if this stuff works for Alesis kits? specifically Alesis Strike Pro

[@becausedrumgeek8817]

works 🙂 (at least for the StrikePro)

[@Pericles777]

I need this, I love GGD but hate the mapping issues lol

[@becausedrumgeek8817]

Just get in touch through the FB forum :)

[@christopherdoucet9723]

This sounds and looks incredible but I think I'm missing something really obvious. I see the fixes, but I didn't catch HOW to make these tweaks. How does one go about implementing this fixes? Is this tweak a product you're selling? If so I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Or sis I miss an explanation on how I could make these changes myself? I watched the whole video multiple times trying to figure it out. HAHA. THANKS!!!

[@becausedrumgeek8817]

Thanks 🙂 Just get in touch if you want to buy fixes. Links in the video description.

[@christopherdoucet4112]

When you say , “get in touch” do you mean the Facebook link? Is there a way to buy the fixes any other way? I’m very interested.

[@christopherdoucet4112]

But I don’t have Facebook. Thanks.

Hi, I have a Roland TD-9 and I’m using Logic Pro X. Everything’s fine except that I don’t know how map choked hits on cymbals. Can you help me?

Sure 🙂
