Quicker Way to Set Mappings

notringo · Post by **notringo** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 9:23 pm

I'm wondering if there is a quicker way to correct improper mappings.
My percussion section in my latest project is off. What I've been doing is going to the individual instruments and changing the + - keys. For instance my tamborine is actual a splash, so I keep hitting the +/- to search for a tamborine.
Is there a quicker way to do this...say a list of notes and corresponding keys for kits?

Hope that makes sense,

Paul

Use the kit menu in the 'Kit window', which has a Show Keys function.

Thanks Ralph, I found it.
The keys look like they are the right ones.
For some reason they are all giving the proper sounds [u:d19c5de8aa]except[/u:d19c5de8aa] [u:d19c5de8aa]percussion [/u:d19c5de8aa](even with the right keys selected). I tried loading different kits, but it does the same thing with each kit. Percussion is giving either cymbals or tom sounds. Any tips on what to check?

Thanks,

Paul

ps I'm using superior with jamstix

So you are trying to trigger a percussion sound in Superior?

Yeah...well I'm building my drum track in Jamstix, but I'm have midi out in Jamstix going to superior. Superior tracks are what shows up in my Samplitude Mixer.

I'm wondering if I need the percussion kit in Superior in order to be able to use percussion in Jamstix? I just have the default kit...ny avatar

It appears that the only percussion that comes with the default kit is a cowbell. I think that means I will have to buy one of the other kits if I want a tambourine...

Alternatively, you could use Jamcussion in Jamstix for the percussion part and Superior for the drum part via MIDI out.

Hmmm, I like having alternatives.

Thanks for the help Ralph!!
