most of edrums do so with an aftertouch message, mainly because edrums modules have used those messages.
Often, edrum soundbanks also offer a separate key to grab (mute) the cymbal, thus another note_on message. It's simpler when you program drums instead of playing them with an electronic set.

moving Hydrogen to a more dedicated drums sampler could be great, but as for today, i find sampler more versatile to achieve good sounding results.
You can for example use linuxsampler, and try out many GIG of SFZ free presets.
