Where can I find a MIDI note # map for the Orchestral Percussion SDX?

[VV_1]

Looking around the web, I can’t seem to find this.

I have one for the SD3 default kits with all the articulations shown on a MIDI keyboard chart with note numbers.

Where can I find one for the Orchestral Percussion?

MIDI mapping for installed libraries are found in the Help–About Sound Libraries–MIDI Layout in S3.

Hi Scott,

I have yet to purchase the Orchestral Percussion and would like to view the available articulations as a factor in my decision.

I am currently using Cineperc as my main library and would like to see if the SDX can replace enough of the instruments to my satisfaction.

I don’t believe there is a pdf layout available other than when purchased. Or, I haven’t seen one from Toontrack anyway.

I find it off-putting that manuals and other documentation would be withheld until purchase for a piece of software.

There are very good reasons for making this information available to prospective buyers and it is certainly common practice to do so.

Why don’t *you* contact someone? Are you trying to make a sale or not?

Wow. Also very off-putting that you are so unmotivated to make a sale. Doesn’t say much about morale for your company.

I’m experiencing frustration at the lack of a midi mapping file for Orchestral Percussion in Cubase. Without this it is extremely awkward working on the MIDI drum editor with only midi note names to refer. My workaround is to use the Latin Percussion map, which is ok for bongos and congas, but most of the rest is different. I don’t understand why Toontrack doesn’t include this with the SDX.

They are included. SDX MIDI mapping layouts are accessed from the S3 Help menu under About Sound Libraries. The PDFs themselves can also be accessed from the corresponding SL-(SDX Library Name) install location.
