Do open hihats not play back?
I pressed Shift and P as suggested and selected open, this put an On above the hi hat note but it still plays back as a closed hi hat?
It works for me.
What I would checkâŚ
- Are you using the Drum Kit provided in setup?
- Did you choose the correct Playing Technique?
- Are you playing through HALion, NotePerformer, or some other VST?
- Are you using the appropriate Playback Template (or Expression Map) for your chosen VST?
Hope something there helps.
This is strange when I do it like Derrek it works fine. When I do it like Andyp13 it does not work. It also looks like the method of Derrek gives a slightly smaller o mark. In the percussion map there is for open HiHat âopen 2â. So may be thats the problem somewhere and there are more opens.
The problem is that there are some duplicate entries for the Shift+P popover, so typing âopenâ doesnât produce the expected playing technique. This is something I need to sort out, but itâs awkward enough to deal with that I keep putting it off, for which I apologise. In the meantime, go to Engrave > Playing Techniques, select the âUnpitched percussionâ category, find âOpenâ in the list and set the âPopover textâ to something like âhhoâ (hi-hat open) and then OK the dialog. Now youâll find that entering âhhoâ into the Shift+P popover works as expected.
