Drum-Map-Manager Output port handling

it's realy frustrated to assign the right MIDI output port seperatly for each drumset note (instrument), because always the 1st MIDI output is automaticly assigned, but this is my MIDI controller.
 
1. it would be helpfull to differ between MIDI controller and MIDI Instrument output device in MIDI device configuration
2. only MIDI Instrument or VST plugins should be assignable as output port
3. it should be possible to assign a MIDI instrument or a VST plugin to all drumset note output ports at once

    2. Hold down SHIFT and click the bottom row.
    3. While holding down SHIFT, also hold down CTRL and select the desired MIDI output from the drop-down.

    You can change them all at once with Ctrl+Shift then select the port you want. You don't have to select them all.

    I agree with this, you should be able to enable MIDI devices and specify they shouldn't show up on MIDI tracks as destinations, especially for things like control surfaces which don't behave nicely when you play a MIDI track through them.

    The UI needs a complete redesign here. Key bindings are fiddly, saving drum maps is not intuative. Previewing results means you have to get out of the editor. And it's looks ugly, buttons are in weird positions etc. It really shouldn't be in preferences at all, rather in the dock.
