Velocity
If
this button is active, the bar height is used when displaying the velocity value
of the note. In all mouse modes (except for "Delete") the velocity can be
changed by directly clicking on a note without have to switch to the controller
editor.
Quantization
The global quantization settings can be found in the menu "Options ->
Quantization options". Press "Q" to trigger global quantization. Each drum
instrument can have its own quantization. To make the necessary settings,
select the arrow next to the track name of the instrument you want to edit and
open the quantization options.
Drum maps
Drum maps specify individual instruments, e.g. bass, drum, hi-hat, snare, etc.
Individual output notes, MIDI channel, and velocity scaling can be set for each
of these instruments. To split the drum names a "general" MIDI map is used by
default.
The drum map can be set in the track info (should the track be set to MIDI
recording), via the "Drum" field and via the drum editor itself by clicking on the
"Map" field.
It may be the case that your synthesizer (regardless if real or virtual) uses a
different mapping setup.
This means that when you play the drum event, the sound you wish to hear
may not be heard (for example, instead of a bass drum, you might get a high
tom). In this case you will have to sort out your mapping setup.
Drum map editor
This editor lets you route each played note to a different one and give them
their own individual names. It's also possible to assign each individual
instrument its own quantization and a new (MIDI) output channel.
Pitch: This is the incoming MIDI note.
Instrument: Here is where you can find the name of the drum instrument, e.g.
"Bassdrum 1".
Grid: If you wish, you can set up a grid for the starting point of the drum event.
