I’ve been trying to use the grid editor but some notes like edge, off center, rim only, flam and closed roll are not midi map how do I activate it so that I can use those notes on the grid editor?

Hi Michael,

which preset are you starting from? It seems a bit strange that all of those are not mapped. If you have started by loading articulations not included in the preset you’re starting from, it’s not strange that they are unmapped. I would simply open the MIDI Mapping Property Box on the DRUMS page and with the articulation in question selected, click on the small “hamburger” menu to the right of the articulation name and ‘Add suggested note’.

Well,

if I knew, I still couldn’t tell you;-) NDA’s n’ stuff. What I do know is that stuff that gets requested by many users, tends to find its way into the software, if it is feasible.

Hi,

any instrument you load in another position than its “native” in SD3 will get an even more generic picture than the black shells, more like an e-drum.
I.e. this particular Rack Tom is an odd bird, since it is a Rack Tom that has its native position in the Floor Tom slot.

Hi,

I am pretty sure that the 9×12″ Tom is a Rack Tom. My guess is that when the Custom Shop EZX was created, the majority of the kits were RT1, FT1 and FT2.
The 9×12″ Fibes Maple has an extra “- Rack Tom” in its name, to clarify that it’s a Rack Tom that loads “natively”, so to speak, in the FT1 position but it is a Rack Tom.
To have this Rack Tom load as a RT2 would have meant different graphics for this EZX where all other kits would have had an empty slot for the RT2 position.
It does get a bit confusing when you Search for it in SD3 and the picture that shows up is a generic Floor Tom but I guess that’s because it fetches the basic position for it in the EZX config. You can load a Rack Tom in a Floor Tom position and vice versa in both EZD3 and SD3.

BR,
John
