Drum Maps for Kontakt

I'd love to find drum maps for the various kits found in Kontakt. I've already found maps for Abbey Road, so what I'm still trying to find are:


Studio Drummer (Garage Kit, Session Kit, Stadium Kit)
Kontakt Band (Central Stage Kit, Funk Kit, etc.)
West Africa

Of lower priority would be:

Kontakt Orchestral
Kontakt Synth
Kontakt Urban Beats
Kontakt Vintage

Any idea where I can find them?

If they don't exist, is there a walkthrough somewhere on how to create drum maps for Sonar, ideally taking advantage of any drum map exporting features that Kontakt might have?

Thanks!

    I never thought about doing this, as I use Battery 3 - I took a quick look around but did not see anything within Kontakt to aid with drum maps.

    As far as Sonar drum maps go, here is a link to documentation on creating drum maps within Sonar:

    http://www.cakewalk.com/Documentation/default.aspx?Doc=SONAR%20X2&Lang=EN&Req=DrumEditor.04.html

    I created a drum map for a kit I created in Battery 3 - it was pretty easy - basically just entering note numbers and names.

    hey trip... i'm going to be doing a little video on just this topic in a day or two specifically with kontakt. i'll be using instrument definitions though, which are a bit easier to work with.  i'll post it as a follow-up here.

    Swamptoot - you certainly have MY attention with this, as well - sounds quite intriguing.

    Profound apologies, I made a typo - it should have said SwamptootH, not SwamptooT (and CERTAINLY not Swampgas).

    The first one really was a typo - I just couldn't resist on the Swampgas one - I tried - I really did.  :)

    I eagerly await your feature film presentation on Kontakt instruments - I have never used them but always wondered about them.

    THANKS!!!!
