Mapping two keys to same note
I use vmpk so I can map the midi notes of VI drums to my computer keyboard. I'm trying to figure out a way to assign two keys to one drum; I want each tom to have two keys so I can do more realistic rolls. However, the vmpk key mapper won't allow me to enter two different keys for one midi note. Does anyone know how I can do this or if it's even possible? Thanks.

Re: Mapping two keys to same note
Might be easier mapping the same sound to two different keys?

Not sure with keyboards, but this was easy to do on the M-Audio Trigger Finger(and it did make a huge difference in tapping in fills)

That would eat up another kit piece slot in whatever drum vi Adam is using. And depending on what that vi is he could easily run out of slots.

That's exactly what I'm trying to do.

Re: Mapping two keys to same note
What I mean is to have the same sound on two different keys rather than two different keys mapped to one sound.
For example, with a snare on D1 and a different snare on E1, change the sound of E1 to be the same sound as D1. Thus you can perform a roll using two keys. Stephen

Re: Mapping two keys to same note
I'm not sure any keyboard allows for midi note assignment(other than the default). That's where a product like the Trigger Finger comes in as you have freedom to assign pads at will, so using 1 of the 5 "pages" of assignments to double-up the pads makes a ton of sense Once you've done that, you will never want to program drums from a keyboard again

Hopefully the preferences for Westwood are fairly self explanatory, as it lacks a manual. Worst case I can always ask the developer. Thanks. |
