Hi :) sorry for my late reply, I didn't fetch emails for 2 weeks. I'm using the D4 to, but without using my DAUZ pad any more. Anyway, I guess I'll have some time to check this behaviour next week. What soundfont do you use? When I bought the D4 years ago it was the or one of the original first version(s), because of a broken power switch I got a new one some weeks later with a software update. Pushing "EXT TRIG" and then the "CURSOR" there are functions like "VCURVE" and "DCAY". I was more fine with the less functions of the original first D4 I had. It might be, that your software version doesn't support this, but if it's supported, it might be that you don't really trigger all played notes, than adjust "DCAY" or that the velocity needs to be fixed. Dunno what software version my D4 is using, it starts with the information 1991. There must be some key combination that can be pushed, e.g. when turning on the D4, to see what software version it is using, but I'm short in time right now and can't figure it out. Btw. the user manual is from 1992, unfortunately I don't have the service manual. If you can burn EPROMS I can take a look and try to read a probably existing ROM. Are you using a pad or mics? What functions are supported for "EXT TRIG" by your D4? In addition I've got a DD-11, as soon as possible I'll check if I can trigger fluidsynth by my DAUZ + D4 or the DD-11. Some information, I only read the first mail of the link, maybe this information I'll give you know is mentioned by some mail: "Note on for Acoustic Bass Drum with velocity 127 Note on for Acoustic Bass Drum with velocity 0" A note on event with velocity 0 is the same as a note off event and not unusual for keyboards too. Another confusing thing for people might be the so called "running status". It would be good if you can post a MIDI monitoring instead of a misinterpretation ;). Maybe Peter or some other drummer can report what the situation is for Roland, Simmons etc. when triggering any virtual Linux synth. IIRC Peter is using Roland Pads. If I shouldn't find the time to test it next week, please remember me to check it with my DAUZ/ Alesis and my Yamaha the week after next.
