Drum Maps
538
To solve this problem and to simplify several aspects of MIDI drum kits, such as using drum
sounds from different instruments in the same drum kit, Cubase features drum maps. A
drum map is a list of drum sounds, with a number of settings for each sound. When you
play back a MIDI track for which you have selected a drum map, the MIDI notes are filtered
through the drum map before they are sent to the MIDI instrument. The map determines
which MIDI note number is sent out for each drum sound and which sound is played on the
receiving MIDI device.
When you want to try your drum pattern on another instrument, you simply switch to the
corresponding drum map, and your snare drum sound remains a snare drum sound.
If you want to have the same drum maps included in your projects, you can load these into
the template.
NOTE
Drum maps are saved with the project files. If you have created or modified a drum map, use
the Save function to save it as a separate XML file to make it available for loading into other
projects.

The list on the left shows the loaded drum maps. The sounds and settings of the selected
drum map are displayed on the right.
NOTE
The settings for the drum sounds are the same as in the Drum Editor.
