I'm working towards standardizing/rationalizing drum note maps across Jamstix, Superior 2, DrumMicA, SMDrums etc.

I worked with a drummer to get my MegaDrum dialed in with Superior Drummer 2 (hi-hat, 3 zone ride and bunch of other mic/mixer settings. (He's used to playing with SD2). All the triggers in the MegaDrum are mapped to the note defaults for SD2

I figured maybe I could stay on that config, switch my host to Jamstix, choose Superior 3 for input and output and it would work but it isn't. I'm using the Charlie Kit and my 10 inch tom trigger is triggering a snare sound. The ride is triggering a crash and the 16 floor tom is triggering the 10 inch tom sound.

I then figured I would edit the midi key and choose what I know is the correct note number but it doesn't change the sound when I hit that trigger.

On the MegaDrum I can quickly and easily change the trigger notes for Jamstix and save it to a config called Jamstix which is what I have been doing so far. I just want to learn how I would change the note maps on the Jamstix side.

I've been looking at mdmaps - What I read in the Superior 3 one looks right - are mdmaps only for output? Can I edit a text file for incoming trigger notes?

Thanks

Yes, they're in the C:\ProgramData\Jamstix4\data\midimaps\Input folder.

Thanks, not too observant of me to miss that folder Very Happy

I printed out the mdmap for S3 Tom(3) - Cr-Cr

I interpret that name to mean 3 toms and two crashes

I also figured out that the MegaDrum provided mapping for Superior 2 is the source of 38 being a Tom. I think that's wrong.

Yes that is correct. I don't know about MegaDrum, I don't own it.

I went back and looked at the MegaDrum defaults and 38 is set to snare. Somehow I messed that up.

You can really spin in circles when you start modifying the same setting in three different places - MegaDrum config - Jamstix input map - Superior Drummer map

No doubt you can start chasing your tail. I got in the habit of always laying jobs like that out in an Excel spreadsheet to keep things straight.

Good idea - I have a google docs spreadsheet someone made for all the Toontrack kits - I'll use that as a starting point
