How can I easily re-map?
To use your MIDI mapping from Superior Drummer 2:
1. Save your MIDI Map within Superior Drummer 2
2. In Superior Drummer 3, open the “MIDI Mapping” panel located on the right side of the interface of the Drums Tab
3. Click the “MIDI In/E-Drums Settings…” button
4. In the upper left of the “MIDI In/E-Drums Settings” window, click the dropdown menu most likely labeled “Default”
5. Scroll down to the menu item labeled “S2 User Preset” to select your Superior Drummer 2 MIDI map (see screenshot below)

SUPERIOR DRUMMER 3.0.2 UPDATE
Thank you for adding the name to the MIDI file when dragged onto the DAW. However, the current implementation makes it difficult to decipher at a glance and unnecessarily shows the complete path to the folder on the user’s hard drive (minus system path info). Furthermore, zooming in horizontally is required in order to see the name of the file on the MIDI region due to the name including unnecessary file path information.
MIDI NAME in SUPERIOR DRUMMER 2 -vs- SUPERIOR DRUMMER 3
– In SD2 the name on the MIDI region was an abbreviation that clearly indicated the MIDI Grooves folder name, relevant path, and file name. This clearly shows the name of the file and enables users to QUICKLY see where it resides in the MIDI Grooves panel without having to extensively zoom in horizontally and then decipher a cryptic file path.
– In SD3 the name on the MIDI region shows the entire path of the file location on the user’s hard drive (minus the system path) and also includes mis-information (displays wrong tempo), and obscure characters making it more difficult to decipher than in SD2.
COMPARISON EXAMPLES (see attachement)
SUPERIOR DRUMMER 2
The MIDI Groove: ” Monster MIDI Pack / Straight 4/4 / SONG 01 104 BPM / HATS CLOSED VARIATIONS / Variation 01 ” is labeled as:
MMP_S4_HCV_V01
SUPERIOR DRUMMER 3
The MIDI Groove: ” Monster MIDI Pack / Straight 4/4 / SONG 01 104 BPM / HATS CLOSED VARIATIONS / Variation 01 ” is labeled as:
_EZD2MIDI_000090@MONSTER_MIDI_PACK/105@STRAIGHT_4#4/110-S022@HATS_CLOSED_VARIATIONS/Variation_01.mid
SUGGESTIONS
On the MIDI region within the DAW only display the relevant information to enable users to quickly and clearly see where the file is located within the Grooves panel. The implementation in SD2 was short and concise and the name did not contain a somewhat cryptic path and irrelevant information such as “_EZD2MIDI_000090@”. It appears that the code used in SD3 simply displays the file path on the hard drive rather than utilizing the previous function used in SD2. Perhaps the naming function code in SD2 can be reused in SD3.

What scenario would be most useful for you in your daily work:
1. * Try to name the MIDI groove to the folder it originates from (both from Grooves tab, and from Superior Drummer 3 song track)
2. Name the MIDI groove to the originating folder path when dragged from Grooves tab, and name the MIDI groove the song part it is when dragged from the track.
SD3 SONG TRACK NAME -vs- DAW TRACK NAME
There are two lines of text on each MIDI region that is dragged to the SD3 Song Track. Therefore, you could conceivably use the top string of text on the MIDI region to display the path name (or abbreviation) of the originating Groove/Fill, and then use the bottom string of text on the MIDI region to display the song part. But if the user drags the Groove/Fill from the SD3 Song Track onto the DAW track the name should then reflect the originating file path (as in EZ Player Pro), otherwise there is no way to keep track of what has been used from the Grooves library.
EXAMPLE (see attachment)
– When dragging a Groove onto the Song Track in EZ Player Pro the MIDI region name reflects the part ( e.g. “Variation 02” )
– When dragging a Groove from the Song Track in EZ Player Pro the MIDI region name reflects the path ( e.g. “Variation 02” becomes “NY-_S4_FV_V02” in the DAW )
KEEP IN MIND
When a MIDI groove/fill is on the SD3 Song Track, the user can use the menu command “Find > Show in Browser” to reveal the originating file path. However, that is not possible once the MIDI groove is placed on the DAW track.
