Drum midi files and notes/percussion correlation

[Touma_1]

Hey, first of all I want to apologize for my frenglish that may parasite the understandability of my question..

But yeah, what I’m facing is not really a problem but an ergonomic issue :
I downloaded a Drum-Midi pack and when I put the midi files on my DAW it shows me the pattern of the different parts of the drum on differents notes, but I don’t really know wich notes corresponds to wich drum-part ! (It’s easy to recognize a kick pattern, but i’m more confuse with the toms).

Is there a file that explains this correlation ?

Thanks for you attention, and a huge thanks for you help 🙂

Yes. In EZD2 go to Menu->About Sound Libraries->(mouse over the library)->MIDI Layout.

This will bring up a pdf with the MIDI note layouts.

Or, in EZD2, click on the kit piece dropdown menu and select Details.
