Jamcussion mapping issue with BFD2

Hi there. I believe that there is a problem when trying to map Jamcussion to BFD2 percussion. I am trying to map the Afro-Cuban kit. However, in Jamstix for the 7" bongo for example, it says that the mapping for a regular hit is to G5. This mapping does not work in BFD2. However when I click on the drum, the BFD2 read out says that G7 is being triggered. When I use this mapping it works. It seems the mapping that Jamcussion is claiming is incorrect. I am trying to work around the issue. However it is a little cumbersome.

Even more wild when I dragged the midi file into sonar, the mapping was completely different to what I had created within JS with BFD. Grrr...

Sonar has a function to adjust the octave offset somewhere.

BFD2 > Preferences > MIDI:

Octave numbering scheme: -2 naming

Thanks. One more question. When I dragged the midi file from JS2 into sonar the mapping changed entirely. Any idea why this might have happened?

I have resolved this issue. Thanks for the help Ralph.
