MegaDRUM PAD Library
Individually stored drums settings for the MegaDRUM Device
I have just for fun have started to collect settings for the most common PADS, Triggers and Cymbals on the market for use with the MegaDRUM trigger device!
A nice jumpstart of library for you ones that not are tweakers!
All files are saved in the MegaDRUM SYX file format, which is easy way to both import and export drums as an individually settings in MegaDRUM Manager. Download the latest MDM here!

Please note that complete drum sets has the file extension MDM and separate drums has the SYX as file extension. They are loaded MDM on separate buttons.

Do you have a working E-Pad/Trigger/Cymbal for MegaDRUM which is not listed in above – Send me a mail with the PAD name, Trigger type &Â MD firmware version + the SYX file. anders.gronlund@outlook.com
Many thanks for compiling this. I’ve just bought a megadrum and will be trying some of these settings. I’ll give more feedback as I go as well as sharing anything I improve on.
I am glad to hear that! Hopefully the library will save you some time! Please do feedback!! Angr77
The file for FD-8 appears to be invalid and won’t load into MCT.
Can you supply a screen shot?
Hi! The FD8.SYX works fine to load in MegaDRUM Manager. Please note if loading a syx file that the button for it is under LOAD in PAD settings. I have created a configuration picture. / Angr77
Great site!!
Tried to use some files but I believe they are not coming in correctly with the current version of MDM, For example CY-15R loads a High Level of -14130 (All of the files tested have) and all note numbers are 73.
Hi and thanks!
Sounded real strange… so I had to test it myself. I have a windows PC running windows 8.1 and I am using Megadrum manager 20140201….no my files for CY-15R showed up correct on my system…. however if you have problems…. look on the configuration pictures link instead.
Best regards
Anders
I realized I was downloading these with “save link as..” When I go thru DropBox they load correctly. My bad….
Great to hear!!! Best Regards

Hello angr77. Do you have any setting for Kit-toy cymbals? I have crashes, splashes and 1 china.
Sorry, everything i have got is collected here. Place a forum question on MegaDRUM.info about this…I know there are several members that use toy kit cymbals. /best regards Angr77
Many thanks Anders, this is a great way in starting up with MD and AD2! This jungle of settings was overwelming me.
Does anyone know a startup setting for a very simple HHC-HH (Medeli) combination? The HH is triggering constantly.
Thanks, Jos
Hi. Do you know if the hh is a type of piezo/switch type of trigger?
Well, I can not find it in the docu. I do think it’s a piezo/switch type. There’s only a HiHat Open and HiHat Closed sound anyway.
I think we need to figure that out first to be able to help you out. The cable going from the hi hat pad …. Is it a stereo type of connector. The tele connected has three zones?
It’s not in the docu, if an extra black line on the jack is an indicator for stereo, than it is. I don’t what ” the tele connected” means.
Ok. This could be tricky. 🙂 I did look through the manual for Medeli, and also made some searches on the net…but no luck. do you have any feeling if the constant triggering is coming from your pedal or from the hi-hat pad?
I would recommend that you place a question on MegaDRUM.info…it could be the case that somebody else has been using the Medeli HH on the forum.
Just wanted to say thanks for this. It’s a great idea.
I have some configs to share . ( roland CY5 hi-hat, roland CY8 crash and yamaha PCY135 crash-ride ). How do I do that ?
just noticed the CY5 and CY8 are already there. doah !
Send The syx files in a mail to Anders.gronlund at outlook.com
can somebody confirm if the PD-8 and FD-8 settings are working for them? they aren’t working for me. Head/Rim separation is unusable.
Is used to work…:-)
Hello ! Nice work ! Have you ever set your megadrum for alesis 12 inch crash and 16 inch ride ? It would be great to have informations !
Have not tried it myself…but it should work fine!
Hello! I am trying to figure out how to make the 35mm quartz percussion set work for me. In your setup guide/preset downloads you say you are using a 15k ohm resistor on the head. Where excactly do I put this resistor? Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards
Erik
It is connected inline with the piezo. Just in serial on the tip.
Thank you very much!!
