Importing standard midi files plays on the wrong notes in ezdrummer2!

[Ketil Ervik]

Since I like Swedish dance music and am 61 years of age, it is natural to play that music over the years. but find a song that fits that music, for example type “Vikingarna”.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gS3buLkoxdM

So I tested loading / importing standar midi files. But when I have uploaded a file to ezdrummer2 the drums are playing in the wrong place / note! it sounds weird. What is the reason for this? is it possible and do something about this? Is it possible to convert a standard midi file to thoontrack ezdrummer?

In short; What can I do with the problem? Can I do something about the problem?

Another question:
Can I replace an intro or something else by manually wrapping this myself with a Korg nanoPAD2? https://www.gear4music.se/sv/Keyboards-and-pianon/Korg-nanoPAD2-USB-MIDI-Kontroller-Black/G8N?origin=product-ads&gclid=CjwKCAjw4871BRAjEiwAbxXi22cOD6nRfiR0rSUOPUHIS9JBDxxrZDce2pd5bxS9ibiBCZh8qzGhyBoCKQoQAvD_BwE

And is there any howto show how to do this?

Many questions, but hope I can get help with this!

Hi,

if the drums play back incorrectly or at least not as expected, they probably aren’t GM compatible or include other instruments than drums.

If you want me to have a look, you can always attach a MIDI file to a post here, if it doesn’t infringe any immaterial rights.

If you want to record some stuff like intros or fills, a controller like the nanoPAD2 can be great. There is accompanying software that lets you define which pad has which note number, so you can set up the pads layout your own preferred way.

BR,
John
