Are your articulations mapped in the MIDI/e-drum settings?

That’s likely the problem. How do I do that?

This is what I did, I see I left off a step or 2

Open my preset, Select loaded instrument on left

Click add instrument on the left, choose search for instrument

search for ride

audition ride in that window, I like the bow articulation

select add instrument

window closes and I find the instrument in the midi map window but it’s only the crash not the bow

See at top – All articulations 3/8 loaded
Click on this and see below – all articulations, see the 3 articulations that are loaded. Below that it says Not Midi-Mapped. I see 5 articulations that are not loaded. How do I get some them to load, in particular the bow, and add to my midi map on the far right?

Hi,

to load articulations that aren’t loaded, you click the small “power” button to the right of the articulation name.
Once loaded, you should be able to map the Instrument and Articulations as you wish. Make sure the ‘Use Preset’ button is on in the ‘MIDI In/E-drum Settings’.

Thanks for this, the button was not on. Yet I was able to get it to work by adjusting Midi Mapping, which is in the box next to Midi Mapping keys

Thanks

Hi,

if you change the MIDI Mapping there, it is changing the actual Toontrack Default note mapping and breaks compatibility with Toontrack MIDI.
The beauty of using MIDI Mapping Presets on the ‘MIDI In/E-drums Settings page, is that it transforms incoming MIDI while leaving the actual factory coded MIDI note mapping intact, keeping compatibility with grooves. If you create a User MIDI In Preset, you can apply it to other Library kits/presets.
Changing MIDI notes in the MIDI Mapping Property Box on the DRUMS page does not give you the possibility to save as a preset.

BR,
John
