Dave, thanks for your quick response. I tried your suggestions in MIDI studio setup, but got the same problem. Anyway my hits were showing on the meter in the Edit window (if you turn on View->Edit Window Views->Instruments), even if Xpand2 wasn't outputting all of them. So Xpand2 doesn't like the Alesis for some reason.



I searched around and decided to try StevenSlateAudio.com as they have a free version with a couple of basic kits in SSD5.5, and it works! I'm thinking that Xpand2 is a little flaky, and for the life of me I couldn't find where to edit MIDI settings in Xpand2, whereas SSD5 has lots of things you can tweak and edit, as it's a true drum plugin. I only tried this one so far, but your advice was spot on in that there are other much better drum plugins.


Thanks again.
