Why or how Toontrack forgot to record and add these is beyond me, it truly boggles my mind. PS- Missing from this entire Latin Percussion set of instruments is CLAVES (Tech Support might want to file this away for future reference, just a suggestion) If anyone has gotten a different result, I’d really like to know. So this final result is just plugging the nanoPAD in, enabling it and tapping the pads one by one. MIssing from the list are the Shekere, Caxixi and Conga 2. What I decided to do and have uploaded is the Basic nanoPAD2 to Latin Percussion pad assignments as I found going thru every pad(16) and scene(4). And not getting any feedback that would solve my configuration problem, as I experimented(explained above) over several days here on the forum on a subject I found, at least a little bit, interesting.

Update: So after hitting dead end after dead end and exhausting what little I knew about midi channel/note mapping using the Korg Editor and the Latin Percussion software and other support documents, etc. Hope this helps explain what’s going on here at my end. And Tech Support is giving some valuable feedback as we work the issue since we’ve not run out of ideas yet…
Ezdrummer midi controller how to#
Shaker, Tambourine, Bells, Cowbell, Chimes, Vibraslap, Woodblock, and Triangle and so on…Īt this point we’re still working on how to get that done.
See where I’m going here? In other words, across the top 8 pads of the nanoPAD, have those arranged left to right. BUT when I’d like to add JUST my own tambourine, cymbals, shakers, etc, I need a PAD, not a Mouse Click, to trigger those with just my finger, old school drum machine style. And for that, there are a lot of varieties there too. (Recording into Ableton Live).Īnd I also added the Latin Percussion EZX Expansion pack. I don’t use any PAD mapping, I just select a style, tempo, intros, add fills, etc, and let it rip. There’s enough of those samples(ballad, halftime, etc) to satisfy my situation for a long, long time. I using the straight ahead EZ Drummer 2 Yamaha 9000 kit that comes ‘standard’ (with the Gretch and DW kits) in the basic installation to lay down a wide variety of drum tracks just to make some basic home recordings and that’s fine, it works GREAT for that type of situation. What I’m doing is trying something ‘a little different’. Would I need to do this pad mapping for each drum kit? There are a lot of different drum kits available to use. I don’t know where to begin to look to set up the pad mappings correctly. I’m not so sure about it since it looks to be a battle to get it right. I’ve been following this thread and have been thinking about getting the Korg nanoPad2. But if you have a link to the process, that would be Cleary said:
I’ve done a search on the topic here, but didn’t find anything.
If anyone reading this has done this, it would be helpful to know how it’s done in a simply, easy procedure. There are sixteen(16) pads so I will need to MAP the most used(Congas, Bongos, Cymbals) to the least used(shakers, bells, etc) with Scene 1 being the most used, then tap the Scene 2 button for the least used so I can use all the percussion instruments in the Latin Percussion add on. My next challenge is to properly ‘MAP’ the touch pads to all the percussion instruments, in order of use, from left to right on the touch pads. Closed and reopened EZ and now I get drum sounds(Latin Percussion in my case). You should see your nanoPad listed there, but you MUST check the box to enable it, by default it’s UNCHECKED. #2) Go to Settings(between File and Help)(upper left corner), select ‘Audio/Midi Setup, then “MIDI Device’. #1) Under the ‘Menu’ drop down(upper right corner) I selected ‘Settings’, then the ‘E-Drums’ tab, then Midi Mapping from ‘None’ to ‘Other’. Even though I properly downloaded, before install, the driver, I couldn’t get any sound out of the EZ Drummer application. I just got the Korg nanoPad2 for $60 from Sweetwater for your exact reason.
