How To Get Rid Of Unwanted Midi Events?

[Stixntrixx]

Hi All,
I'm running Pro Tools LE 6.4 on an 001 on PC w/ Windows XP. I have a Roland TD3-SW electronic drum set that I'm trying to record into Pro Tools using Reason 4.0 for a sound bank. My problem is that I keep getting unwanted MIDI events when I'm tracking, most noticeably on the PDX-8 snare (where I sometimes get as many as 2 or 3 extra ghost notes after a single hit). It's a major hassle to go through the track and manually delete all the extra hits, so is there a way to filter the unwanted MIDI events during tracking so that they don't appear; and if so, are there any setting recommendations to retain the subtleties of a real drummer? Don't want to get all Def Leppard on it.... :)

I've tried adjusting pad sensitivity on the sound module, but that doesn't seem to have any effect.

Thanks in advance.

Here's a trick that just might work. Show velocity on your midi track(EDIT window). Expand it vertically so it fills much of the screen and look for the ghost notes velocity diamonds, which SHOULD all be way lower than the notes you want. If you zoom out so the entire song fits on the screen, draw a box around all those low ghost note velocity symbols(which SHOULD highlight those notes on the piano roll) and hit the DELETE key. If it works, great. If it doesn't, hit Ctrl-Z to undo, or close the session but DO NOT save, so you can open it as it was before and try another solution(I'm a little foggy on 6.4)

Cool, thanks for the tip. I'll give that a shot. So there's no way of changing the midi settings somehow so the unwanted events don't get recorded in the first place?
