edrum roland mapping

[Ang Patrick]

HI, i have notice that when i change my note mapping to the preset e-drum roland, when i playback a groove using the superior library hi hat close variations, the hi hat no longer sound like a close hi hat. It became open hats instead. Is that normal? i m using a td 15kv so i choose e-drum roland instead of the other brands. I had tried choosing the e-drum yamaha and when i playback the same groove, it’s a close hats.

Hi,

the Toontrack MIDI has another, more extensive mapping than the Roland E-drum mapping. So it’s not strange.

Hi, so I shld use Roland mapping? And also how does the velocity controlled hats, ghost the hats and hats vel variations works? Under presets>midi node>practical and creative.

Hi,

when E-drumming, you should use the Roland mapping. If you work with GM or Toontrack MIDI, you should use the Default MIDI Mapping.

The Velocity controlled/ hats vel variations presets are MIDI-nodes switching articulation per velocity range, instead of using CC data to open/close.

The ‘Ghost The Hats’ Preset is showing an example on what kind of creative stuff you can create with the MIDI-nodes.
