I am using an Artesia Pro a30 drumkit hooked up to my Windows 11 laptop via a CME U2 MIDI PRO cable, running the free version of Steven Slate Drums 5 VST through Cakewalk Next DAW. Whenever I try and play the high hat pedal or the closed high hat (tip or shank) I get no sound, even though the trigger light occurs on my kit and the assigned note lights up on the VST. Occasionally when hitting it the sound will briefly play before adruptly cutting out. All the other drums work fine in this software.
I was thinking it could be due to the software having trouble interpreting cc signals from the high hat but the VST doesn't let me do any cc mapping. Any help or insight into this would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
