Stem Direction for Drums

Hi Team, I’m trying to get the stems to go up for this hi hat/snare part. They are set to go up in the instrument kit but come out facing down. When I try to flip the stems or force up, the beam switches to the oppostie side of the noteheads and still faces down.

I’ve done up a short loom to show what I’m experiencing. Any help would be awesome!

Can you attach a cut-down version of the project? Just a bar or two is sufficient. From your video I can’t see which setting or settings might be responsible for what you’re seeing, but I’m sure I’ll be able to find the reason if you can provide me with the project file.

Thanks Daniel, Here is the project file.

Hi Daniel, sorry to bother. I wanted to see if you have had a chance to look at the file for the stem direction? Thanks, Grant.

I’ve not had a chance to have a proper look, but the problem is something to do with how the percussion kit itself is set up. If you delete the existing player from the project and add a new Drum set (full) kit to a new player, when you input those triplets in the hi-hat, you’ll see the stems point up as you expect.

Thanks for that Daniel. I deleted the existing play and added the new one and its all working!
