Superior Drummer 3.1 – Overdubbing/replacing lanes in Grid Editor. MIDI Note MAPs

[shedboyxx]

Hi Folks,

I could use some help on a few SD3 related issues. Wherever practical, feel free to recommend the section of the manual giving instruction or videos instructing on the specific issue

Grid editor and instrument specific replacement overdubs

I’m trying to figure out how to use the SD3.1 Grid Editor to record overdubs to existing grooves.

1) Pull Groove to Song Tracker
2) Using MIDI controller (KBD, E-drums, finger pads, etc.)Overdub TO REPLACE and existing lane, such as a hi-hat.

Is there a way to do this while in the Grid Editor and not just the Grooves tab? That’s the only way to see what happens to the individual notes and not just be viewing the MIDI ‘block’ in the Song Tracker.
Can this be done without affecting any other pre-recorded instruments (bass drum, snare, etc.)?

Loading articulations that are listed as ‘not loaded’.
I came across an issue while selecting articulations for a snare in the MIDI//E-drums section.

Snare selected in Drums tab
Snare Thump not loaded (there are more)
How do I load those articulations?

Lastly –
Is there a MAP of MIDI note assignments for each kit? The notes from different instruments and articulations seem to change from kit to kit with some note assignments staying the same. Trying to figure out how to have a reference sheet so when I setup note triggering in my Roland SPS-S I can easily access all MIDI note numbers to assign.

This would also be useful to use in light of how to separately record different drum lanes to different MIDI tracks in Reaper.

Phew! Long post but thanks for any help.

Jim

MIDI layouts are library-specific.
In SuperiorDrummer3, you can find the MIDI layout for any of your installed libraries under >>Help >> About Sound Libraries.

You should have been given access when you registered SD3. If that didn’t happen contact support; https://www.toontrack.com/faq/how-do-i-contact-support/

Thanks.

Good news – per Scott’s recommendation, I get where the MAPs are and found them

The Access denied thing
Actually I am logged in and have access to the forum. However I couldn’t navigate to the link location. Moot point since I can find what I need for note assignments locally.

Now ….my other questions – I’ll start another thread.

Thanks

Jim
