This is really confusing to me as the Midi note is the same but the sound is not. I am able to replicate this scenario at anytime by just reloading the preset and it will go back to a fully-open sound until I touch the pedal.

As for the others things you mentioned, I am able to get it to make the splash sound although it is very quiet. The splash registers as a 44 Midi note. The fully-closed high-hat and the half-open high-hat sound identical even though the closed is a 42 Midi note and the half is a 23 Midi note.

Now, to the weird part. I opened up BFD Player again, keeping the same map you sent two days ago. Once again the open high-hat was fine until I touched the pedal then it only would have the half open sound again, just as it did before.

After, extracting your new map and replacing it with the previous one I rebooted BFD player and now there is no open nor half-open high-hat sound. All the Midi notes 46, 42, and 23 all sound identical, although Midi note 23 is a bit louder than the rest. I was not able to find a Midi note in the Surge Module that would make the half open or fully open sound within BFD under this new map. I was able to replicate this even with rebooting.

After going back to the previous map from two days ago, the half-open high-hat sound is now there again.
This is why I am so lost, how is it possible that the same Midi note is making a different noise with two nearly identical maps?

I would be interested to see if they would provide the option to go to a previous version of BFD just to see if it would work like it did before the update to 1.2. That way we could pretty much eliminate it being hardware issue.

Hi,
I can confirm the issue. I have a brand new Alesis Surge Mesh SE kit and the behavior in BFDPlayer 1.2 is exactly the same as topic starter has observed: if hi-hat has been closed once - it will never sound opened again until I reload preset.
I think the issue is inside the BFD Player or maps and definitely not in the surge module or pedal.

@CHASER. I assume results you observated during investigation of this issue were different since you used Strike module and Realhat pedal while the Surge Kit comes with different, lower-end devices (dmhat).

According to midi monitor that is all what Alesis sends: the listed notes with velocity (basically the hit power).
I am not sure if such map will help as it look quite weird that current map works fine until the first hi-hat close. Just trying to investigate

@CHASER @BFD_Drew
I now can confirm this is 100% software issue. BFD Player 1.1 works correctly.
I found a windows laptop and installed the previous version using an installer provided by Chaser. There is no such bug an everything works fine.
Bug reproduces only in version 1.2

Now the good part:
I used the untouched 5.5GB DMG image you provided in the previous message. And it worked! And, of course, worked correctly without that bug. By the way, inMusic Software center detected installed software correctly.

For Windows users: remove currently installed BFD Player, download the zip archive via the link below, unzip into any location and run installer. Note, you do not need to remove the core library or any other content.
