Chapter 1 Drum Kit Designer 20
Drum Kit Designer mappings
Drum Kit Designer is compatible with the GM standard. You can also choose GM+, which maps
the keyboard ModWheel for hi-hat control. This means that you can use the keyboard ModWheel
to adjust the degree to which the hi-hat opens and closes during the drum performance.
Drum Kit Designer is also compatible with the V-Drum standard.
The image shows how drum sounds are remapped when dierent modes are chosen with the
Input Mapping pop-up menu in the extended parameters.
Note: A number of alias drums sounds are included for GM compatibility purposes.
