mapping ezdrummer 2 to drum pads on advance 61 keyboard
Hi,

Thanks for posting!

This is normal. We’ve discussed this a few times here and the difference is just in the way the note is labeled between the two companies. Essentially, it’s a difference in opinion about where middle C is.

Using the note numbers is an easy way around this as these should still line up between the controller and the software. If you go into the Global Menu on the Advance, you’ll see on the first page an option to change the Note Display Type between Name and Number.

Hope this helps!

Did not realize there was a difference between D-1 and D1? Will switch to note mode once I figure out how to switch that on the keyboard.

Now will this keyboard mapping work in ezdrum standalone mode? Do I need to have the Akai VIP software running? And if so, should this be done by adding ezdrum as an instrument plugin to the Akai VIP software or keep it out of VIP?

Similar question for Studio one 3 pro. What setup will actually effect the change in ezdrum via Studio One?

(Had akai pad registering to the drum in ezdrum yesterday, since then I can’t remember what config got that to work?)
Some one needs to put out a youtube vid.
