Tele' O'Neil on Added a Hi Hat sample

Wow! What a program. First class guys, first class!

I hope you can help me with a couple of issues I've run into.

I tried to add three of my go to Hi Hat samples (by Paiste) but can't seem to get the closed sample to stop the open sample from continuing to play within S3.

Years ago I used an Alesis D4 Drum Module which allowed the user to select either a Polyphonic or Mono output that automatically took care of any situations when a note had to be muted by another note. Alesis referred to the solution as either a Mono, or Polyphonic output if you wanted all the notes to continue ringing in their entirety without cutting one another off (such as the Toms or Cymbals). It was an easy solution to understand & easy to employ.

Since I haven't used an Alesis D4 for years I was fortunate to find a similar feature in Battery 3 that I used (in tandem with Superior 2) & running the Open Hi Hat, Foot Pedal, & Closed Hi Hat through a Mono channel because I was unable to add my own samples to Toontrack Superior 2. This seemed to work fine but added the need to use additional software which depleted my RAM just to use a few additional samples that Superior 2 didn't have nor did I have the option to add my own samples to S2. It made my PC unnecessarily sluggish considering this can be done within the S3 environment. I hope you can shed some light on this issue for me.

I'm not sure if the Ride cymbal is handled in the same way but I've noticed that after a few bars the buildup on the ride becomes overly busy & lacks the definition. I had it setup in Battery 3 with Mono as well so every note being played automatically turned off the previous note & I didn't get that build-up I'm noticing in S3.

Thank you & keep up the fine work!
