Using the Step Sequencer with drum maps
By default, all rows in a Step Sequencer clip are assigned to the track’s output port, which could be a
hardware MIDI port, a software instrument, or a drum map.
If you re-assign rows to different output ports, the Step Sequencer will automatically assign the rows
to a new drum map.
The following diagram illustrates how the Drum Editor in the Piano Roll view, the Step Sequencer
and the Drum Map Properties dialog box are all interconnected when using a drum map.
A. Note Name B. Notes C. Mute, Solo, Velocity and Velocity Multiplier are separate for the drum map and step
sequencer
A change made in the Drum Map Manager dialog box will affect the Step Sequencer and vice
versa.
To edit the drum map properties of a note
1. Click a row’s Select button to show all controls for the selected row.
2. Click the Output control and select Open Drum Map Manager from the drop-down menu.
The Map Properties dialog box appears.
3. Configure the drum map properties as desired. For more information, see “The Map Properties
dialog” on page 763.
Clicking on another row in the Step Sequencer window will update the Map Properties to display
information for the new row.
Note: Mute, Solo, Velocity and Velocity Multiplier are separate for the drum map and step
sequencer.
