NORD DRUM 2 triggering on Midi NOT OFF (twice p note)

Post by Sonicnaan »

Hi!
The ND2 is such a great and interesting synth as well as a percussion synth. I've seen people use the Midibro to provide poly.

I have a basic issue: ND2 is triggering twice per note.

Once for note-on and again for midi note-off.

Any advice on how to stop ND2 from triggering again on a midi note-off?

Hi Sonicnaan!
Welcome to the forum!

A NOTE OFF shouldn't trigger a new note on the ND2, I was thinking of some sound parameters that might result in a sound upon NOTE OFF, but I don't think there is any. Perhaps a delay (/'Echo)' might fool you. Anyway, it's always good to try several drum sounds, but I bet you already did.

Perhaps you can feed whatever is sent to the ND2 to a MIDI monitor application such as MidiOx (PC) or MIDI Wrench on iPad, I'm sure there is one for Mac as well. Very handy tools to find out what is actually going on with MIDI.

If you're playing your ND2 with the Nord pad, or other pads, and record MIDI on a computer or tablet, make sure to switch Local Off on your ND2 if you need monitoring from your DAW, or leave Local On, but switch off monitoring in your DAW.

But perhaps I should first ask you what your setup is. What are the MIDI settings on your ND2?
What software or app / hardware are you using to control the ND2?
If you're on a computer or tablet, what MIDI interface are you using?

Cheers,
Albert
