The GM map is set up according to the General MIDI standard.
You can change all drum map settings except the pitch directly in the drum sound list or in
the Drum Map Setup dialog. These changes affect all tracks that use the drum map.

Importing Drum Maps from Virtual Instruments
You can import your drum map settings to the VSTi/MIDI track that is routed to Groove Agent
SE.
PREREQUISITE
To import your drum map settings to a VSTi/MIDI track the track has to be routed to Groove
Agent SE or another drum instrument that supports drum maps.
PROCEDURE
1. Load a drum kit in Groove Agent SE.
2. In the Inspector for the track, open the Drum Maps pop-up menu and select Create
Drum Map from Instrument.
The drum map is created for the kit that is assigned to the MIDI port and channel
selected in the Inspector.
3. Open the Drum Maps pop-up menu again and select Drum Map Setup.
4. In the list on the left, select the kit that you have loaded in the instrument.
RESULT
The sounds and settings of the instrument are displayed in the Drum Map Setup.
NOTE
Instrument and pattern pads are both exported to the drum map. If they share keys, the
pattern pads get priority, that is, their settings are included in the drum map.
Channel and Output Settings
You can set separate MIDI channels and/or MIDI outputs for each sound in a drum map.
When a drum map is selected for a track, the MIDI channel settings in the drum map
override the MIDI channel setting for the track.
You can select different channels and/or outputs for different sounds. This allows you to
construct drum kits with sounds from several different MIDI devices, etc.
•
To make a drum sound use the channel of the track, set the channel in the drum map
to Any.
•
To make the sound use the MIDI output that is selected for the track, set the MIDI
output for a sound in a drum map to default.
•
To send the sound to a specific MIDI output, select any other option.
•
To select the same MIDI channel or MIDI device for all sounds in a drum map, click in
the Channel column, press Ctrl/Cmd, and select a channel or output.
