The first thing that draws attention is that the drum mapping in OPMT is different from MIDI General Map, e.g. I did some experimenting with various drum vsti's and sound fonts and I noticed that there seems to be no single method of 'translating' the notes in drum sequences from OMPT-derived midi files.

The only difference is that the MT Power Drum Kit has many soundbanks whereas I have to download different kits seperately, and not every kit is equally good. I have really good kits of 7mb that sound about the same as the MT Power Drum Kit. You can even download drumkits that follow the general midi spec without other instruments. OpenMPT comes with a general midi soundfont bank that is of low quality, but you can download kits of over 100 mb with really good quality online. The only way you can be assured that you can get a 1-on-1 fit, is by using an SF2, SBK or other soundfont bank player vsti and download a general midi bank in a format this player understands, and it will work out of the box, no note editing necessary. Because the mapping is off, you will not be able to load in a midi track and get it to work magically using the MT Power Drum kit. This drum only has 13 different instruments, and through banks you can load in different sounds, but the general midi specs use 128 different drum sounds. There is one problem with this VSTi, as with many drum VSTi's, it does not adhere to the general midi specs.

You are lucky, I know that plugin as I've used it myself. Is there a way to get a similar result in OpenMPT? What do I do wrong? If I load the same midi file in Cakewalk and set the output of the drums track to MT Power Drum Kit (loaded as instrument), everything is replaced immediately and sounds exactly as expected. The result: I can hear either the hi-hat only or no drums at all (I don't know what it depends on). Midi bank - I don't know what to do with it, but it seems whatever I do changes nothing. The midi channel is set to 10 (by default), and I either leave it or change to 'mapped' (no difference).ĥ. I go to 'Instruments' tab, and I go through each drum instrument (crash cymbal, bass drum, hi-hat, snare etc.) and set the 'Plugin/MIDI' to FX1: MT-PowerDrumKit in a drop-down menu.Ĥ. I load a drum kit plugin (say, as FX1).ģ. I'm trying to replace generic drums in a midi file with a drum kit (MT Power Drum Kit - it consists of only one set, so no tweaking is necessary, or even possible). I thought there is a straightforward answer to my problem, but I haven't found it, which means the answer is either too obvious (alas, not to me) or there may be no answer at all. to much closed hi-hat.This is my debut in this forum. I also have a ddrum brain with the same input options but I just end up getting the same result. Any help, I would kill for! I just want to play the kit. I have messed around a little but the ALT 1 & 2 options are throwing me off.

But below is a picture of the MIDI mapping provided in the Simmons SD7PK manual compared to MT Power DrumKit 2's default mapping. The solution may be obvious to some in the images provided but I don't know what to change or where. I am thinking this must be an issue with how the vsti is mapped within LIVE within MT Power Drumkit 2 and the brain's default mapping.

Then actually using the pedal produces that same close noise. When I plug it in though, the kit registers the open hat noise but immediately cancels it with a drum closed noise. When the control input is unplugged, the hi-hat makes an open noise like I imagine. assuming this is hit-hat control) for the 'hi-hat control' input. Plug the top of the double cymbals into the 'hit-hat' input and using the other piece (mounted below the two cymbals and has an 1/4 output.

Now, with the Alesis Pro X Hit Hat, I am trying to do the same thing.

The cymbal routes to input 'hi-hat' and the foot pedal routes to hi-hat control. This brain originally has a single hit-hat cymbal with a foot pedal that isn't connected. I am have an Alesis Pro X Hi Hat connected to a simmons sd7pk brain. I'm really struggling trying to make my DIY (sort of) drum kit work with MT Power Drumkit 2.
