I’m having the same issue. The above FAQ was informative, but I don’t think it answered my particular problem.
There are 4 shakers listed in the core library that I’m trying to use (these are not in the “future hit instrument” list). When I add them to my kit they simply do not map to any midi keys (whereas the future hit instruments will map to a midi key automatically). I cannot seem to get them to map, which makes them unusable.
Well, I’ve already purchased SD3, which cost approx $399. I’d rather not go through the trouble of returning SD3, just to purchase SD2 with the SD3 upgrade. But you’re saying that with the price of SD2 ($199) plus the upgrade (~$200) I would be getting more kits/options even though the total price of SD3 alone would be the same. This situation just seems so counter-intuitive. Is that really true? There must be some other way of accessing a default kit from SD2?
