"of course you can in some case foll ow your vst manual note list, but in prefer to do it this way, saves having to go back and do this step again, if it has not worked, i found that not every Daw and vst notes match up, silly and odd, but true , Image line drumaxx for sure, is about 2 Ocatves out,so its trial and error, baffling!! . "
In preferences, custumazation, display, you can set the base octave for pitches. I set mine to minus 2 and it conforms the the printed list supplied by toontrack... if this helps.
Yes you can do that with some drum vst, If it allows, but not with drumaxx,But drumaxx is great as i can assign its pads to what ever pitch/notes, but C3 is really C5 etc, and it can be Confusing depending on what notes you want to assign to its pads,(for example if you use the midi muliti edit option and want to see all midi notes/drum notes across the one combined pianoroll/drummap, this is my next learning mission in Sonar, Muliti midi editor or what ever sonar calls it), add doing this on top of that Sonar drum maps setup and a newbie may loose it, i did for a while, my head went
before i even brought this muliti midi edit into the equation when i Tested The S1 Daw. all good features/function and should be the backbone of all Daws really.
Thanks, still good info for others that do not know about this,knowledge is king.
